Did the FDA approve marijuana for any specific medical treatment?
Does anyone have any idea what pharmacuetical companies go through to get a drug approved? After it is approved there are increadible regulations that are strictly enforced during the production process all the way to market.
Any drug produced that was produced in a facility that violated a number of these regulations must be pulled from the market. There are billion dollar lawsuits going on everyday because of missing documents validating processes.
Still, Joe Blow can go and grow. All the community and the doctors know. Write a script, charge a buck, Jow Blow is a wealthy fellow.
How many doctors invest in Joe Blows business I wonder?
BTW The FDA has approved marinol as a medical thc preparation. I knew a guy who took it for appetite while dealing with cancer. Yes he got rather high. He was a FFL dealer also, btw.
Aspirin could not get approved today, too many side effects (like blood thinning). But it’s grandfathered.
