I am prescribed dronabinol to counteract the appetite supression caused by another prescription medication, which although it works very well, has an annoying side effect of completely taking away my appetite. Dronabinol has helped bring back the joy of food! I had to play around with it a little. I don’t think it works well if only taken as needed, because it takes too long to kick in. I find it much more efficient to regularly take 20 mg/day; divided in two seperate dosages. 10 mg in the morning and another 10 mg again later in the evening. Although, I did have side effects when I first started taking the med, they have all since dissapeared. The ease of use for dronabinol is less than other meds, as the high price of this medication makes it hard to find a pharmacy that regulary keeps this med on hand unless ordered, which takes anywhere from 2-3 days. On top of that, the medication is supposed to be kept refridgerated.
