I think the point is like any drug, Cannabis can have side effects with certain people. It probably wouldn't be a good idea to prescribe Cannabis to someone diagnosed with schizophrenia, for example. However controls to try and ensure the right drugs are prescribed and minimise the chance of side effects seem to be accepted for most drugs. However in the case of Cannabis, the risks are far overstated, particularly by some sections of the media, such as the Daily Mail in particular. Legalising Cannabis is a political issue, not a medical one. |
