Finland: Marijuana Accepted Use For The Frail in Finland

Short News

Wednesday 13 Dec 2006

---
Finland has now allowed the use of pot to ease the pain in ongoing
diseases; it is now being tested by being used by prescription. They
will be studying each case separately.

Finland is currently serving out up to two year sentences for illegally
using the drug. England, Canada, the Netherlands and other countries
currently prescribe it for illnesses like multiple sclerosis.

Erkki Palva of the Finnish pharmaceuticals said "But we do not intend to
make this a permanent policy. We will continue to examine cases
individually." Bedrocan, a cannabis-based drug, has had the go-ahead for
one man in chronic pain.
