An eight-year-old boy with Tourette’s saw his involuntary tics halted after being given daily doses of cannabis oil. But his random arm movements and vocal tics almost halved in severity after being given a THC-based oil, a case report has revealed. The boy’s tics started when he was just six. He also suffered ‘very loud’ vocal tics – but the tale, published in the European Journal of Medical Case Reports, did not reveal what they were. Though, writing in the case report, she did argue the boy’s tics only improved after the addition of THC.
