Get High and Fight Cancer

A new drug derived from marijuana is now available to Canadians, but you don’t actually get high from it. Sativex is a drug that uses part of the marijuana plant that has no psychoactive effects to relive pain – relatively, this can be like getting high. The U.K. has already approved drugs based off of marijuana which means Canada isn’t the first nation to do this.

Gordon said Sativex, which is primarily composed of THC and cannabidiol – a non-psychoactive cannabinoid – hasn’t produced any adverse side-effects in patients, something other pain medications, particularly opioids, can’t claim.

She said patients who react negatively to other medications shouldn’t have to suffer because of their sensitivity.

“Any extra tool in that tool kit to allow for increased comfort is welcome,” she said.

  1. Good day mate! I was surfing the internet Tuesday afternoon during my break, and found your blog by searching Yahoo for \”marijuana affects\”. This is a topic I have great interest in, and follow it closely. I liked your insight on Things Are Good: good news, and it made for good reading. What do you think of these hydroponics gardens?
