Some will work for your pain, others won't, but will cause ulcers and/or liver damage. Move from OTC to prescriptions and you have a whole host of other side effects on top of potential addiction issues.

The worst you can expect from cannabis is a horrendous case of the munchies, a night of couch plant, or an unexpected/unplanned nap.
