Cannabis-based drug may ease pain
TVNZ – Oct 28, 2006
Sativex is not available in New Zealand but doctors at a medicalconference in Dunedin say evidence is mounting to back its use as asafe alternative to morphine. Cannabis has been used medicinally for 3,000 years although fewcountries allow it, but the new cannabis-based drug may one daytake marijuana mainstream. “If the scientific evidence supports the fact that it will helppeople then I feel that it should be made available,” sayspharmacology researcher Paul Smith. The nasal spray contains two cannabis ingredients – THC andcannabidiol. “It does produce in some people some intoxication, some lowlevel of intoxication, but the actual levels of THC in Sativex arequite a bit lower than the THC you’d get in a cannabis cigarette,”says Professor Smith. There have been 12 international clinical trials on the use ofSativex in the past three years alone – for pain relief, nausea, asan appetite stimulant for cancer and Aids patients and evenglaucoma.

Even the avowed socialist on the city council worries about the city pretending that California’s drug laws and the laws of economics don’t apply to Santa Cruz. “It’s one thing to be unique and edgy, but I don’t want the city to be seen as totally wacky,” veteran Councilman Mike Rotkin said. The marijuana initiative would require police to make pot arrests their lowest priority. If the proponents have their way, criminal arrests and citations for marijuana possession and even sales on private property would drop off the police radar.
