So I need some realtalk by Lemmie's resident stoners and possibly medical professionals on the benefits and risks/harms of vaping cannabis refill things on the respiratory system (using a rechargeable vape pen/battery thingy at the lowest heat setting).

Give it to me straight docs, whats up and how long do I have to live if I use it infrequently but potentially daily in small amounts?

Every anaesthsiologist will tell you that there a few inhaled drugs, such as sevoflurane, isoflurane and desflurane. We use them every day. They are vaporized and inhaled.

Those are not treating anything, are not meant for habitual use, and aren't available for individuals.

Sevoflurane can be used as add-on treatment for Asthma in Life-threatening cases. But I know that‘s beside the point and I agree that there is no vaporized treatment for individuals.
