Legalized Marijuana Can Create Tough Tasks For EPs

What's it like to be an emergency physician in a state where marijuana is legal? Some places see patients using more frequently, giving rise to cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome and DUIs. Some see tourists swoop into the state and overdo it, not knowing how to regulate their use. Others find children mistaking edibles for brownies and the like, resulting in ED visits. Thirty-three states have legalized medical marijuana, 10 have approved medical and recreational cannabis, and 13 states and some cities have decriminalized marijuana, reducing or eliminating legal penalties for possessing small amounts. Its use, however, is still against federal law, which considers it a Schedule I drug with high potential for abuse and no accepted use. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved cannabidiol (CBD) to treat rare diseases that cause seizures because it does not contain THC and will not cause a high.

Krzysztof is a playful, smiling five-year-old Polish boy with Down's syndrome. His parents say they owe his life to the medical cannabis oil they began giving him two years ago. A new law came into force on Tuesday allowing Poles to use stronger medicinal marijuana than the kind authorised so far-but critics say few may see the benefits of it. In Krzysztof's case, conventional drugs had failed to ease the more than 200 epileptic seizures a day that left him weak, exhausted and gasping for breath. "Two years ago we tried medical marijuana as a last resort after everything else had failed to relieve our son's violent seizures, and he began to improve from the very first day," Krzysztof's father, Artur Schewe, told AFP. "We were overjoyed because just days earlier we had been preparing for our son to die," said the bearded and bespectacled 52-year-old insurance salesman. Tender palliative care The Schewes have been giving Krzysztof cannabis oil that is ...

Six years later, in August 2019, Illinois’s recreational cannabis sales totaled $300 million in the first seven months of legalization after Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed Senate Bill 2023, according to THCnet.com, a leading cannabis trade news source. Showing overwhelming support for recreational cannabis legalization, Lt. Gov. Julia Stratton was among the first citizens to purchase it on the first day of sales in 2019. After her purchase, she tweeted, “For too long, IL residents, particularly those that are black & brown, have been targeted and criminalized for #cannabis possession.” She finished off the social media post, saying, “It’s not just a new year, it’s a new day. Thank you, @Gov.Pritzker, for ending prohibition and building a more equitable Illinois.” Illinois invites all qualifying patients and everyday citizens to purchase cannabis for medicinal or recreational purpo...
