Medical Marijuana: How this Cheaper, Safer Painkiller is Changing Health Care

Medical marijuana is being prescribed for pain more and more often these days, while traditional painkillers like Vicodin and OxyContin are being prescribed less and less. This change not only saves states money on their health care programs, but it's also saving lives as the number of overdoses caused by traditional painkillers has dramatically decreased. In a recent study conducted by Ashley and W. David Bradford from the University of Georgia, analyses of prescribing patterns and spending in state-funded Medicare Part D programs revealed that medical marijuana is having a significant impact on our nation's healthcare.

The study found not only that traditional painkillers were being prescribed far less where medical marijuana is a legal alternative, but also that states with legal medical marijuana were saving millions on their Medicare programs. Overall, reductions in Medicare spending where medical marijuana is legal added up to $165.2 million in 2013, a figure which is expected to continue to increase as more and more states opt to legalize the medical use of cannabis. If all fifty states were to legalize medical marijuana and prescribe it in line with these current patterns, it's estimated that the annual nationwide savings would total over half a billion dollars.

More important than the money savings though is the fact that medical marijuana is saving lives. In the states with legal medical marijuana, the study found that on average, physicians prescribed 1,826 fewer doses of traditional painkillers like Vicodin (hydrocodone), OxyContin (oxycodone), methadone, and Opana (oxymorphone), which are often associated with dangerous side effects, abuse potential, and a greater risk of overdose.

The Center for Disease Control considers painkiller overdoses to be a nationwide health epidemic, with an estimated 15,000 deaths each year attributed to an overdose of a prescription painkiller. From 1999 to 2014, over 165,000 people in the U.S. alone lost their lives to a prescription painkiller overdose. More people die from a prescription painkiller overdose each year than from heroin and cocaine overdoses combined. Methadone, Hydrocodone (such as Vicodin), and Oxycodone (like OxyContin) are the most common opioids involved in overdoses, and these are also some of the most commonly prescribed, especially in states where medical marijuana is not yet an option. Meanwhile, there has never been a single documented case of medical marijuana overdose leading to death or any other serious complications.

As more and more physicians are opening their eyes to medical marijuana as a safer alternative to prescription painkillers, more and more patients are reaping the medical benefits of cannabis, not just for pain relief but for a wide range of conditions including anxiety and depression. A 2016 survey of state databases found that there were 1,246,170 registered medical marijuana patients across the country. It's no wonder the pharmaceutical industry continues to lobby against further medical marijuana legalization—they're losing consumer faith, customers, and revenue daily as new research on the medical benefits of cannabis emerges and more states allow doctors the option to prescribe it. Numerous studies have shown the benefits of marijuana for pain relief, anxiety, depression, glaucoma, epilepsy, HIV, cancer, and other conditions. Marijuana is even reputed to help relieve discomfort and heighten sensitivity during sex. With more and more states legalizing not just medical marijuana but also recreational marijuana, cannabis has lost a lot of its stigma and its benefits are being more readily embraced, a change that's benefiting not only patients but also states looking for more efficient, effective, and safer healthcare options. As medical marijuana continues to open up new avenues of wellness, the healthcare landscape is transforming and the medical community has at last begun to evolve.

DEA to Reclassify Marijuana: Official Confirms Looming Marijuana Decision

In a recent interview with aNewDomain, DEA staff coordinator Russ Baer confirmed reports that the DEA is considering reclassifying marijuana off the Schedule 1 list of controlled substances, and indicated that the enforcement of marijuana policy is not a top priority for the federal agency. Although stopping short of offering any specific details about how exactly marijuana might be reclassified, Baer did confirm the genuineness of a recently leaked letter from the DEA to the senate that stated the agency was hoping to reach a decision on whether or not to reclassify marijuana by mid-year. Baer downplayed the mid-year estimate though, stating, “We aren't holding ourselves to any artificial timeframe.”

While an official decision is still yet to be announced, speculation is strong that the DEA will indeed reclassify marijuana from a Schedule 1 drug to a Schedule 2 drug sometime this summer. Recently, an anonymous attorney for the DEA was reported by the Santa Monica Observer as stating that the DEA would soon reclassify marijuana to the schedule 2 list, sending marijuana industries and cannabis communities into watch and wait mode. The DEA's decision to reclassify marijuana to schedule 2 could have a significant impact on both the recreational marijuana and medical marijuana industries, and feelings are mixed as potential effects and consequences are still unclear.

Reclassifying marijuana from a Schedule 1 drug to a Schedule 2 drug makes medical marijuana legal at the federal level. This means that residents of any state could obtain a medical prescription for marijuana and be able to legally use it without fear of criminal charges, neither at the state nor federal level. “We’re not going to go chase after the mom who picks up cannabinol (CBD) in (one) state for her epileptic child and takes it to another state … ,” Baer stated.   

A reclassification to Schedule 2 would also remove many of the current legal obstacles to cannabis research, which could in turn help pave the way for new medical advances and discoveries. Baer explained, “We want there to be research on marijuana and its component parts, there needs to be (more) studies about both the benefits and the adverse effects about marijuana... We want to remove the roadblocks for (cannabis research.)”

While some marijuana activists that have been pushing for medical legalization at a federal level see a DEA decision to reclassify marijuana to Schedule 2 as a step in the right direction, others feel it doesn't go far enough and in fact could greatly inhibit the progress that's been made towards achieving full-scale marijuana legalization for recreational as well as medical purposes. The DEA divides controlled substances into five categories, or Schedules, based on accepted medical benefits and abuse potential. Drugs on the Schedule 1 list, where marijuana currently resides, are considered the most dangerous, with the highest potential for abuse and health risks, and no known medical benefits. Schedule 2 drugs are acknowledged as having some medical benefit, but they are still considered dangerous with high abuse and health risk potentials. The Controlled Substance Act is worded in a way that specifies Schedule 2 drugs can't be dispensed without a prescription, so a reclassification of marijuana to Schedule 2 could potentially destroy the recreational marijuana industry as we know it. It all depends on the specifics of how the drug is classified and how regulations are applied. As an official announcement on reclassifying marijuana is awaited, all eyes are on the DEA and many fingers are crossed that the details of the decision will allow for states to make their own choices regarding recreational marijuana.

If you're a first timer or you're traveling to Denver for the marijuana tourism, you might be in need of a little guidance regarding what to buy at the local dispensaries.

What marijuana candy is right for me? Here is a list of marijuana gummies and other marijuana candies available at Denver dispensaries that have come to be local favorites:

Marijuana Gummies for first timers and travelers

Denver Chocolate: Marijuana Chocolates and Best Dispensaries in Denver for Edibles 

In Denver chocolate comes not only in varieties such as specialty chocolate, gourmet artisan chocolate, milk, dark, and white, but also it can come spiked with a heavy dose of THC. Marijuana chocolates are a type of edible marijuana product that locals and out-of-state Colorado travelers alike can buy at many Denver recreational dispensaries. As long as you're over 21 and you have a valid photo id card, you can walk right in any of the best dispensaries in Denver for edibles and come out with a nice sampling of delicious marijuana chocolates and other tasty treats.

If you're traveling to Denver from out-of-state, just be sure to not overdo it. It's easy to eat a whole chocolate bar if it's your normal, everyday chocolate, but if it's marijuana chocolate, eating more than the recommended dose (which is typically just a small square) will likely knock you out and you may very well sleep through the rest of your Denver marijuana tour. Marijuana tourism in Denver offers an abundance of activities and sightseeing opportunities that you won't want to miss, so go moderate on the marijuana chocolates and other edibles. A little goes a long way, and any more than that can make you groggy, tired, or even sick.

You can find marijuana chocolates and other edibles at most Denver dispensaries, but not all brands and dispensaries are created equal. Here is a list of some of the best marijuana chocolates Denver chocolate lovers and edibles enthusiasts know and trust, along with the best dispensaries in Denver for edibles. If you're traveling to Denver for the marijuana tourism, these marijuana chocolates and recreational dispensaries are a must-try.

Marijuana Chocolates in Denver

Chocolate lovers taking a marijuana tour of Denver should be sure to sample some of the wonderful varieties of cannabis-infused chocolates available at many recreational dispensaries in Denver. Blue Kudu makes marijuana chocolate called the Coffee Crunch that's absolutely scrumptious. It's made with dark chocolate and coffee beans and each bar is infused with 40 or 80 mg of THC. Other marijuana chocolates they offer include toffee almonds, cookies and cream, cherry almonds, and The Original—an orange flavored marijuana chocolate bar infused with 80 mg of THC. You can pick up a Blue Kudu bar at Life Flower dispensary, one of the best dispensaries in Denver for edibles.

Another option for a hungry Denver tourist seeking a buzz is the Crispy Kraken made by Dixie. These chocolate bars are made with 34% premium cacao milk chocolate giving them a smooth and creamy texture and a balanced, not-too-sweet flavor. A layer of crispy rice provides a nice crunch, while the infusion of THC brings a moderate, feel-good high that won't knock you out as long as you don't overdo it. Another edible marijuana chocolate to try in the Dixie line that's gotten great reviews is the Chocolate Cherry Pretzel Bar. Salty, sweet, and slightly tart, this marijuana edible packs in 10 mg of THC per serving. Dixie products are available at the many Livwell dispensaries in Denver.

Mountain Medicine also makes some of the best marijuana chocolate and edibles in Denver. Their Magnificent Sea Salted Dark Chocolate Bite is made with dark Belgian chocolate, cannabis oil, and a hint of sea salt for the perfect blend of sweet, salty, and stoney.

Each package contains eight servings, and each serving delivers 10 mg of THC.  MMJ America downtown and Livwell Broadway are two of the best dispensaries in denver for edibles and they both carry a large selection of marijuana chocolates made by Mountain Medicine.
