If the science was actually valid she already had access via prescription pills. If the dosage was the issue it can be reduced.

This is just a fluff piece to help civil plaintiff lawyers have access to insurance by shifting cases out of criminal and into civil courts. Criminal acts preclude claims on insurance. Decriminalizing drugs means the insurance companies (and those who pay for insurance) will now have to financially pay for the deeds of potheads.

Wrong. You may be thinking of Marinol (synthetic THC) - not the same thing.

NO , you’re 100% wrong .. the oil extract is in clinical trials , you cannot get it at the CVS or Rite-Aid store ... This plant has hundreds of chemical compounds , some may be useful for treating conditions where current treatments are poor at best ... my sister (now in her late 40’s) has been on an anti-seizure med for most of her life .. it has some disturbing side effects and she has had problems with generics being a cause of seizures rather than a help.. My take is that her current drug isn’t a “good fit” for the symptom relief she needs ... Something might come out of this research , it certainly has shown benefits ... Why does it work? I’m not an organic chemist ... but there are THOUSANDS of drugs we use everyday that work wonderfully and we don’t have a clue why they work.
