"Previous studies have suggested that smoked cannabis increases pain," lead investigator Dr Mark Wallace of the University of California, San Diego said. "This is the first study using a dose-response method that suggests smoked cannabis has a therapeutic window with moderate doses decreasing pain and high doses increasing pain. "
In a group of healthy volunteers, Dr Wallace and colleagues studied the effect of low, medium and high doses of smoked cannabis or placebo on pain induced by injecting capsaicin into the forearm 5 and 45 minutes after drug exposure. No dose of cannabis had any effect at 5 minutes, but by 45 minutes after exposure there was a significant decrease in pain with the medium dose and a significant increase in pain with the high dose. No such effect was seen with the low dose.

He said most of the finds were in houses, factory units and empty shops and it could take four or five days to remove all the plants.
