Other stories abound about friendly doctors prescribing it to their friends for phantom pain management, anorexia, and various other questionable ailments.

While I am sure there are some who use medical marijuana because it is the only effective treatment for what ails them, I am also sure that there are few if any checks to see if ongoing “treatment” is necessary.

So what's the answer? Throw the baby out with the bathwater by denying medical marijuana to all, even those for whom it is the only effective treatment for what ails them?

Nope. Just as I cannot get Vicodin or Oxy for forever, there should be some guidelines implement by the states for follow up. Seems that in many states there is no limit on how long one can receive this prescription, nor are there standards for efficacy.
