There is a company I believe called GW Pharmaceuticals that has already gotten a product approved in Canada that is in a spray form. It is a cannabis extract product that makes use of other cannabinoids found in marijuana. THC is not the only "active ingredient" and it's supposedly not the only one with medicinal properties. One of the ex higher ups from the ONDCP, Andrea Barthwell, is their lobbyist here. They are working in partnership with Bayer. It will be interesting to see if the government allows this product to be placed on the market in the U.S.

Not many people are grasping just how much the Commerce Clause grew with this decision. They basically said, "We know it ain't interstatec commerce, but we're treating it like it is". The Federal gov't grew by leaps and bounds today.
