Legal Question in Health Care Law in California

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I am surprised in that neither Soma (carisoprodol) nor marijuana appears to be associated with the type of severe weight loss you describe. Maybe he has some other, undiagnosed, medical condition. But I am a lawyer, not a physician, and this is really a question for your family doctor.

If he has become a genuine danger to himself or others, you can petition a court to have him put in involuntary treatment. This is not easy to do though, without a criminal conviction related to the drug use, so you may have to turn him in.
