Florent Pagny «helped» enormously by cannabis during chemotherapy
During an episode of the Contre-Addictions podcast, Florent Pagny opened up about his medical use of cannabis since the announcement of his cancer.
Since January 2022, Florent Pagny has been dealing with the effects of chemotherapy for more than two and a half years. Throughout this difficult period, Pagny has turned to cannabis to help him manage the debilitating side effects of his treatment.
«Actually, we shouldn’t forget that this product is a plant. It’s not a chemical formula—it’s a plant. Nature created it. This plant has healing properties. So, we’ve been talking about recreational use for a while now, but I can tell you that the medical side of it—how it helped me—is just insane.»
Although chemotherapy is crucial in the fight against cancer, it comes with a range of side effects, including severe nausea, loss of appetite, and sleep disturbances. For Pagny, cannabis has provided significant relief from these symptoms. And if he has given up on combustion Despite his cancer, he is reaping the benefits of cannabis through THC capsules that he purchases.
He explains in the podcast: «Well, cannabis stops you from throwing up, it gives you an appetite, and it helps you sleep. Those are the three things that [chemo] takes away from you. As for using this product alongside medical treatment, no one has told me it’s contraindicated. Besides, other countries do it, but not here. It’s being studied, but I’m not going to wait because I’m getting hammered right now!”
He describes cannabis as a the perfect complement to chemotherapy regimens, which he compares to a «truly rotten juice that destroys every cell.».
Beyond his own positive experience, Pagny acknowledges that cannabis for «recreational» use is not suitable for everyone. He emphasizes that while cannabis has been beneficial for him, it is not for everyone. He also makes a clear distinction between medical and recreational use, and condemns the’cannabis use among teenagers. On the other hand, he recommends the therapeutic potential of cannabis to as many people as possible.
«No one ever told me not to use this product as part of my medical treatment.»

When will preventive chemo become available? Officially, of course—though millions of people are already on it. They’ll all be drained dry, but they won’t die (Bashung, if you’re reading this?) of cancer—that’s good news.
