This boggles my mind so I thought I'd look for some opinions here. I just read a local whitepaper that talks about an addiction treatment facility in Massachusetts that's weening patients off of opioids using medical marijuana with a 75% success rate!1 Rates for other addiction treatments aren't that high and those addiction treatments can be nasty. Drugs like methadone can do just as much harm in certain cases. Why isn't PA pushing for the use of medical marijuana in opioid addiction? It's clear that it works and it's a safer alternative than any other addiction treatment.
