A little about marijuana vape carts 👨🏻‍⚕️💨

TALLAHASSEE — Veterans are pushing back against a proposal backed by Florida House leaders that would limit the amount of THC in medical marijuana, an effort they say is not based on science and could be harmful to veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder. House Speaker José Oliva has called the proposed 10% cap on THC, the euphoria-inducing component in cannabis, a priority, but Senate leaders have remained skeptical about the need for such a limit. Smokable cannabis now being sold by the state’s medical marijuana treatment centers has potency of as high as 30%. Sen. Jeff Brandes, a St. Petersburg Republican who served in Iraq and who has long been an advocate of medical marijuana, warned Tuesday that capping THC levels would make life worse for many veterans already struggling to cope. “Limiting THC would reduce the amount of medical effectiveness of cannabis and would cause many veterans to rely on unsafe, untested options, including moving to the illicit market to manage their needs,” Brandes told reporters at a news conference in the Capitol. Veterans, especially those with post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, have had “amazing results” substituting cannabis for addictive opiates, according to Kirk O’Connell, a Tampa physician who is a member of the Veterans Cannabis Project and who joined Brandes and others at the news conference. A constitutional amendment, approved by more than 71% of Florida voters in 2016, legalized medical marijuana as a treatment for a broad swath of conditions, including PTSD. According to a draft report submitted to the state Board of Medicine in September, PTSD accounted for roughly 26% of medical marijuana patient certifications last year. Chronic non-malignant pain was the No. 1 qualifying condition, accounting for nearly 34% of diagnoses in the draft report. Certifications for “medical conditions of the same kind or class” were tied with PTSD. Cannabis is an especially beneficial treatment for veterans with PTSD, who are at high risk of suicide, O’Connell said. #veteransforcannabis #floridacannabiscommunity #flmmj (at Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9AmsvpJkn5/?igshid=17f8wfl4lwdz7
