Trump's FDA is first to legalize a medicine made from marijuana
Take that libtards.

The FDA is set to reclassify CBD within 90 days.

====

The Food and Drug Administration on Monday approved the country’s first drug derived from marijuana, a medication that treats two rare and devastating forms of epilepsy.

The drug, GW Pharmaceuticals’ Epidiolex, is made of cannabidiol, or CBD, a component of marijuana that does not give users a high. It is given as an oil, and in clinical trials, it was shown to reduce the number of seizures by about 40 percent in patients with Dravet or Lennox-Gastaut syndromes.

Because the Trumptards insist on crediting Trump for doing things that were planned LONG BEFORE Trump even ran for President. He's a puppet, signs what he's told to sign, says what he's told to say. He doesn't deserve credit for anything and especially not for cannabis reform. Credit the PEOPLE that busted ass to get cannabis reform on ballot referendums and lobbied legislators and even risked their lives and freedom to build the right climate for reform. Don't credit a fucking politician. And that's exactly what the Trumptards do. Credit a fucking politician for accomplishing what people have been working to accomplish for many years.

Re: Trump's FDA is first to legalize a medicine made from marijuana
More than likely this pharmaceutical company is isolating the cannabidiol (CBD) from the 90+ other non-psychoactive cannabinoids naturally occurring in the plant - while current research is showing that the best/optimal therapeutic value is found from consuming all of the compounds found in the plant, together.... Consuming the individual/isolated compounds by themselves results in reduced therapeutic effectiveness...

I believe I read not long ago that parents of children with Dravet's syndrome (seizure disorder) were finding better results by treating their children with products (typicallly oils/tinctures) which also contain THC, in addition to high amounts of CBD... This pharmaceutical company cannot offer THC in their 'epidiolex' - and that should be a concern...

Lastly, I came across this High Times article which references the drug mentioned in this thread - and here is what was said:

[link to hightimes.com (secure)]
For one, anecdotal reports are promising, but they’re often rife with bias (parents obviously want the drug to work and occasionally see success when none exists), and self-reported data is often unreliable. One of the most promising pieces of evidence was from a recently published early-stage human clinical trial that found seizure frequency was cut nearly in half in patients with Dravet Syndrome after taking a 99 percent pure oil-based cannabidiol compound (Epidolex, GW Pharmaceuticals). But again, the data was based on parent self-report, a potentially unreliable source, and had no placebo-control group for comparison. Furthermore, patients remained on their prescribed anti-epileptic drugs during the trial; so it’s difficult to say whether any seizure reduction was due to cannabidiol directly, or if cannabdiol interacted with the other drugs, or their metabolism, to reduce seizures. This is not to say that cannabdiol didn’t effectively reduce seizure frequency in these patients, but most docs don’t consider it a closed case. More work is to be done.

It's quite likely that this drug will be of benefit to families that reside in states without access to medical cannabis - but this announcement/development is far from being groundbreaking and it certainly doesn't get to the heart of the matter... Still we have government laws and regulations getting in the way of people being able to control how they medicate themselves with natural, plant-based medicine...

Make weed legal for All Americans, with strict standards of growing, distribution and marketing, much like alcohol. Americans do as they please, at least I do and don't give two shits if uncle sam says yes or no.

I'm free. I smoke weed, drink alcohol, and still wake up and do my fucking job. If weed is controlled and available to the American people you will see a reduction in opiates, doctor visits and fraud. The only people holding this up is your state reps who are getting paid to hold you down.

They know if its legal, you won't need them anymore. Fuck em. If you want to feel good after slaving away(and it is slavery) all day, they have no fucking business to say no.

If you say no, fine. I won't harm or disrupt your life, but stop trying to control mine.
