Expert okay's over counter cannabis

 

 

May 27, 2004

 

A Dutch expert says providing cannabis through pharmacies for medical use does not lead to increased recreational use.

 

In New Zealand, a select committee recommended last year that the drug be provided to patients for a range of complaints from chronic pain to MS and cancer sufferers.

 

Officials are currently awaiting the results of a clinical trial in Britain.

 

Willhelm Scholten the head of the Office of Medicinal Cannabis at the Ministry of Health in the Netherlands, told Radio New Zealand making the drug available through pharmacies wouldn't have an impact on recreational use.

 

Scholten says medicinal cannabis use should be no different from the use of other narcotic drugs for pain relief, such as morphine.
