Marijuana Could Help Lower Opioid Prescription – Study by OLAMIDE8555: 1:04pm On Apr 03, 2018
U. S. experts have found a solid reason for legalising medical marijuana, saying it can help Americans who are struggling with opioid addiction and possibly reduce opioid-related mortality.

According to a study in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine, prescriptions filled for opioids decrease by 2.11 million daily doses per year from an average of 23.08 million daily doses per year when a state adopted a medical cannabis law.

“This means that allowing the use of cannabis for medical purposes may encourage lower prescription opioid use and reduce the harm in the opioid crisis,’’ the study said.

It noted that the finding was “particularly strong” in states that permit dispensaries.

The study analysed daily doses of opioids from 2010 to 2015 under Medicare Part D, the optional prescription drug benefit plan that covers over 42 million Americans.
