MARIJUANA SPRAY DISPROVES PROPAGANDA

Sativex, the marijuana-based spray produced by GW Pharmaceuticals, brings 
the medical marijuana debate full circle.

This product is a descendant of the universally recognized marijuana 
extracts and tinctures that were a standard part of the medical 
armamentarium until the late 1930s. The Canadian government has just 
certified that the decades of negative propagandizing about marijuana was 
wrong.

Sativex is to marijuana as a cup of coffee is to coffee beans. If Sativex 
is safe and effective, marijuana is safe and effective. More than 600 
patient-years of research have established a remarkable record of safety.

Marijuana is medicine, and patients and doctors should be able to use it in 
whatever form works best for their particular situation.
