Federal drug officials are warning Georgia to shelve its plans to be the first state to allow pharmacies to dispense medical marijuana products.
News outlets report that the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on Nov. 27 warned pharmacies that dispensing medical marijuana violates federal law.
So, is cannabis more like a gamma ray emitter or surgical anaesthetic, or more like a drug typically dispensed by pharmacies?
I was addressing the argument that things with medical benefits belong in pharmacies.
But since you ask: it is more like a drug taken most often for recreational purposes, many of which are also not found in pharmacies.
Does the pharmacy sell any drugs that can be used for recreational purposes?
They keep coricidin behind the counter. The one with pseudoephedrine in it
Allergy meds as well. They require a driver’s license for Sudafed.
I know you’re not OP, but it is like we have a system and infrastructure to actually provide safe medical marijuana to individuals who need it.
Often alcohol.
They also medically dispense painkillers, the most common controlled substance used recreationally.
Sure, and benzos. But neither of those are ever legally prescribed for recreational purposes.
Nothing is prescribed for recreational purposes, prescription is strictly a medical thing.
Yes, that’s correct.
Some, but not all.
