$3 Million Cannabis Research Is Underway to Come Up With Treatment Options of Cannabis Use Disorders


(MENAFNEditorial)

2.4 million people have tried cannabis in the last year according to the Washington Times- and that’s one of the reasons a $3 million grant has been awarded by the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute on Drug Abuse. The ultimate goal of the research endeavor is to discover the best ways to treat cannabis use disorders and to gain approval from the FDA for medications to such ends. The Washington Times reports 4.2 million drug users are addicted to marijuana and cannabis related products. The Washington Times quotes the research proposal

“Cannabis use is an increasing public health concern in the United States that requires immediate attention. Given the high prevalence of marijuana use and its associated disorders and the large number of people who seek treatment there is a critical need to discover and develop safe and effective treatments for [cannabis use disorders.]”

Marijuana research is no longer impeded by federal restrictions. Drug and Alcohol Rehab Denver welcomes the new found research in the hopes of attaining medications slated specifically to treat cannabis addiction. The drug treatment facility asserts identifying medications for cannabis treatment may give marijuana addiction more emphasis to the general public.

The an associate from the addiction treatment center comments “We’re not only excited about the impending marijuana research study because of the potential for newer treatment methods for cannabis users but because the validation that marijuana addiction is an actual disease will be solidified when there are medications specifically for cannabis use disorders. Even though addiction’s relationship to marijuana has been firmly established in the addiction industry much of the public is still in denial about the potential dangers of marijuana and cannabis projects.
