Dr. Garland Cowan from The Exit Drug (documentary) discusses the ease of prescribing an opioid and the trials & tribulations of getting medical cannabis accepted in the medical community.
About The Exit Drug:
The documentary investigates how cannabis could play a major role in ending the opioid crisis, a public health emergency that kills an average of 115 U.S. citizens a day. According to neuroscientist Dr. Adie Wilson-Poe, cannabis has the potential to significantly improve public health by diminishing our reliance on opioids. The Exit Drug explores the course of opioid addiction, from initial usage (typically after an injury) to drug relapse, and how cannabis could be the solution to reduce harm and promote help.
