RE: Confessions Of A Pharmaceutical Disillusionist – Open Letter to the Medical Community

in #health8 years ago

Hello @hempsweet. I envy you, living en Denver. I'm from México, psychiatrist so you can imagine the kind of adverse efects of some medications. So I've been very interested in the marijuana movement in USA. I dont do apology of marijuana, There must be 25 years since I smoked a pot, but I've being buying a lot of medical books of marihuana, with the hope in a near future, the marijuana could be legal in my country. I used to prescribe some called nabilona for fybromialgia and fatigue syndrome, also for neurophatic pain with ambiguous results, but now is out of market. I've been encourage some very specific patients to try small dosis of marijuana, mainly for these diseases, but I've been reading about it's therapeutics even in squizophrenia! Wonderful. Like in the main of drugs I prescribe, the most important is the ratio and the Kd of a drug and it receptor (5HT, D2. D1, GABA, NMDA, etc) so I know it must be specific concentratios of CDB/THC or anothers cannabinoids in order to have an specific result. These means low or high doses, specific combinations and the system citocrome p450 ( for example, for pseudbulbar affect I use quinine and dextromethorphan). Well i guess you should now some secrets of pharmakinetics.
Well, nice to have you around here. I hope you can document your results (like the one you describe about controlling paranoia using 10-30 mg of CBD) in this place to take note. Greets.
