I doubt it will be in smoked form.

For some, the smoked form is the only way to ingest it (nausea etc..) outside of IV administration (which may be impossible outside of a hospital).

I've read where they're looking at an eyedrop application of THC for glaucoma. Also, don't rule out a 'patch' form of medication delivery (similar to nicotine) or suppository form.

My point was that even if marijuana is found to have medical benefits, it would probably not be delivered by smoking. It would be difficult to administer in a hospital setting, and there would be potential side effects like those associated with smoking tobacco.
