Marijuana is not liked for mixing with pain meds. Most doctors will not allow it. And for methadone, that combo has the potential for causing DEATH (by long QT syndrome stopping the heart).

With morphine it is just a drug interaction. Marijuana may enhance opioid actions up to 4 times. Doctors don't like that, as it may lead to respiratory depression reactions.
