Ukuqonda kwethu izingozi nezinzuzo zezokwelapha ukusetshenziswa kwaye kwanda eminyakeni yamuva. Nakuba ngo-2016, akuyona yonke imibuzo ephenduliwe, ama-handful of states asethe ama-dispensaries futhi adlulisa imithetho evikela iziguli ezisebenzisa lesi sidakamizwa kusukela ekushushisweni. Lezi zinhlelo azikuphelelanga. Kodwa izindaba ezinhle yizinye izimo zomgogodla kanye nezinhlobo zezintambo ezingapheli noma ubuhlungu bezintambo zifakwe yizimboni ezimbalwa ezibheke phambili phambili njengemibandela yimuphi umuthi wezokwelapha ongabhalwa.
Thola ukuthi isimo sakho siphila embotini wezokwelapha ngenxa yenkinga yokubuhlungu emuva nangenhliziyo .
Mayelana neMarijuana Ezokwelapha
I-Marijuana iyisitshalo esikhiqiza imali e-US kanye nesidakamizwa seSheduli I ngaphansi koMthetho Wokulawulwa Kwezinto Ezilawulwe Ngama-1970. Lokhu kusho ukuthi kunamathuba amaningi okuhlukunyezwa (okuwukuthi umlutha), futhi akukho mithi yokwelapha.
Noma kunjalo, iMarinol, imishanguzo esekelwe ngogwaja evunyiwe yi-FDA, ihlukaniswa njengesidakamizwa seSheduli III. I-Marinol iqukethe i-synthetic version ye-THC, okuyinto isithako esebenzayo emanzini. Njengesidakamizwa seSheduli III, iMarinol ithathwa njengemithi yokwelashwa, okungenamandla okuhlukumezeka. I-FDA ivumile i-Marinol ukusiza ukugqugquzela ukudla kwabantu abane-AIDS nokuphatha isicanucanu nokuhlanza ngenxa ye-chemotherapy.
I-Cannabinoids ne-Pain
Ngokusho kwabaseMelika ukuthi i-Safe Access Foundation (i-ASAF), i-pro-medical advocacy group e-Oakland, eCalifornia, uhlobo lwendabuko lwezinambuzane luqukethe ezinye izinhlobo eziningi zokudla (ngaphezu kwe-THC) kunokwenziwa kwe-synthetic Marinol, futhi ngenxa yalokho ikhulula ngaphezulu izinzuzo zokwelapha.
Ama-cannabinoids akhiqiza amakhemikhali ngokwemvelo kwisitshalo se-cannabis. IYunivesithi yaseWashington ithi kunezingcingo ezingaphezu kwezingu-480 ezikhona, futhi lezi zingase zihlukaniswe kancane. Amanye amakhemikhali ahlukanisiwe asebenza ngokweqile kunezinye. I-THC, okungenzeka ukuthi iyona eyaziwa kakhulu yamakilasi angaphansi kwe-cannabinoid isasebenza ngokwengqondo kakhulu .
Ezinye azisebenzisi njenge-THC kepha yize ziwusizo ekuphatheni izimo ezithile zezokwelapha, isibonelo, ukuhlukunyezwa ezinganeni.
Ngokuqondene nobuhlungu, i-ASAF ibika ukuthi ukuthatha inhlanganisela ye-cannabinoids iveza ukulawula ubuhlungu ngaphezu kokuthatha i-THC yedwa. AmaMelika okuFinyeleleka ngokuPhepha athi i-cannabis inezinselelo ezimbili ezingadlala ekulawuleni ubuhlungu obungapheli, kufaka phakathi ubuhlungu bentamo nobuhlungu.
Okokuqala, kunganciphisa ubuhlungu ngokwayo-kungaba yedwa noma kuhlangene nezinye izinhlungu ezidambisa izidakamizwa. Futhi okwesibili, ingakwazi ukulawula isicanuca esihlotshaniswa nobuhlungu besikhathi eside kanye nokuthatha i-opioids, ukuvuselela ubuhlungu be-narcotic.
U-ASAF uthi futhi ngenxa yokuthi ukugcoba kuholela ekuthandeni okungcono nokuncintisana okuncane, kuyindlela ejwayelekile kakhulu futhi ethandekayo yokuthatha i-cannabis.
