Well now we know why the pharmaceutical industry fights medical marijuana so hard. It’s bad for profits, never mind that it reduces the misery of opioid addiction, because hey, who cares about people?

You'll find some pretty callous self righteous people here if you look around.

That doesn’t make sense. Opioids are cheaper than dirt. If Big Pharma is making killer profits, it ain’t on opioids.

They could produce a product that is in gel cap form minus the HIGH and make a profit if it were just for PAIN.

Pot does NOT work on GI nor NEUROPATHY pain. Not even Dilauded does that. I’ve had to much experience with both to know. Saturday had a Divertiuclitis attack out of the blue, that ER visit saw a lower dose of Dilauded than normal, didn’t phase the GI pain one bit nor the Neuropathy pain it flared. Got sent home with just a big 875 Mg dose of Amoxicillian for 10 days, liquid diet to rest gastro track, see your Gastro in 2 days....yeah, first appointment is 2/21 as a ER workin.

But they will over sedate Nursing home patients. Nursing homes sedate residents with dementia misusing antipsychotic drugs
