Mexico take steps towards medicinal cannabis regulation

 MEXICO CITY - Mexico’s health ministry on Tuesday published rules to manage the utilization of medicinal cannabis, a serious step during a broader reform to make the world’s largest legal cannabis market within the Latin American country.



The new regulation was signed off by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and can now allow pharmaceutical companies to start doing medical research on cannabis products. The cannabis reform happening includes the recreational use of marijuana, and can create what would be the world’s biggest national cannabis market in terms of population.

The new medicinal rules state companies which wish to hold out research need to obtain permission from the Mexican health regulator, COFEPRIS, and this research has got to be wiped out strictly controlled, independent laboratories.

“The standard of regulation is extremely , very high,” said Luisa Conesa, a lawyer and pro-cannabis activist who spearheaded legal challenges that led to decriminalization of medical cannabis.

“(The regulation) isn't aimed toward patients growing their own cannabis, it's aimed toward pharmaceutical companies producing pharmaceutical derivatives of cannabis which are classified as controlled substances that require prescription," he said.

The regulation also sets rules for the sowing, cultivation and harvesting of cannabis for medicinal purposes, which might allow businesses to grow marijuana legally on Mexican soil.

While some cannabis plant imports are permitted for companies looking to make products, exports of Mexican-grown cannabis is prohibited.

Foreign weed companies from Canada and therefore the us are watching Mexico with interest. Many had delayed making investment decisions thanks to policy uncertainty and were expecting the ultimate regulation to be published.

Mexico’s lawmakers also are within the final stages of legalizing recreational use of marijuana, with the bill expected to pass within the next period of Congress.

The legislation marks a serious shift during a country bedeviled for years by violence between feuding drug cartels, which have long made many dollars growing marijuana illegally and smuggling it into the US.

Why Medical Marijuana and why now?

  More states are passing laws that allow people to use medical marijuana. So what does it treat, and who can and should use it? Pain is the main reason people ask for a prescription, says Barth Wilsey, MD, a pain medicine specialist at the University of California Davis Medical Center. It could be from headaches, a disease like cancer, or a long-term condition, like glaucoma or nerve pain. If you live in a state where medical marijuana is legal and your doctor thinks it would help, you’ll get a “marijuana card.” You will be put on a list that allows you to buy marijuana from an authorized seller, called a dispensary. Doctors also may prescribe medical marijuana to treat: Muscle spasms caused by multiple sclerosis Nausea from cancer chemotherapy Poor appetite and weight loss caused by chronic illness, such as HIV, or nerve pain Seizure disorders Crohn's disease The FDA has also approved THC, a key ingredient in marijuana, to treat nausea and improve appetite. It's ava...

What is THC?

You’ve probably heard about this acronym and are wanting to know more about it. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the chemical responsible for most of weed’s psychological effects. Is THC only used for recreational purposes? Is this why people smoke weed for these effects? Or does THC also offer medicinal benefits for people who are using cannabis and/or cannabis oil in Kenya? The first step to understanding THC is to understand cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are chemical compounds found in the cannabis plant that interact with receptors in the brain and body to create various effects. There exist dozens, and potentially more than 100, cannabinoids in the cannabis plant, but THC is most widely known among these due to its abundance and psychoactive attributes. The isolation of THC came from an Israeli chemist by the name of Raphael Mechoulam. In 1964, Mechoulam isolated and synthesized THC from Lebanese hashish, marking the beginning of cannabis research that would lead to...

The Extraordinary Properties of Rick Simpson Oil

In 2008, RSO creator Rick Simpson revealed a documentary entitled Run From The Cure, which recounted his experience and discovery of how cannabis could treat cancer with concentrated cannabis oil (aka RSO). Since then, many Cannabis oil patients have used the oil to treat cancer. It is all anecdotes, and anecdotes are not science, but due to the hostility of the U.S. government by making it illegal to do research on cannabis, a scientific inquiry into the purported cancer curative potential of cannabis has never been undertaken. Nevertheless, there is a peer-reviewed scientific study recommending that cannabis be an effective anti-cancer agent. Published in the Journal of Cannabis Research 2004 by Dr Manuel Guzman of the Complutense University of Madrid in Spain, he found that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) inhibited the development of brain tumours in laboratory mice. Additionally, in 2006, Dr. Donald Tashkin from the David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California, Los...
