CANNABIS AS MEDICINE ✨

3rd edition of the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) (1851) recognized cannabis as medicine. Interestingly, the USP committee convened only once every ten years. Cannabis use had been widespread prior to the 1851 revision.

From 1842 to 1900, more than half of all medicine sold contained cannabis as a top three ingredient. It was prescribed for rheumatism, epilepsy, migraines, depression, as a muscle relaxant, to assist in terminal illness, during labor and was even commonly prescribed to children.

The discovery of the first cannabinoid wasn't until 1895, when researchers Wood, Sivey and Easterfield were able to isolate and identify CBN - cannabinol.

The hypodermic needle was perfected in 1853. As the majority of cannabis compounds are in-soluble, it could not be injected. However, morphine (an o***m derivative) could. This led to an increase in op**te use, as stable forms could now be injected for more immediate pain relief. Dependency soon followed, and was commonly referred to as The Soldiers Disease. Due to this, and an already all to common alcohol addiction, many doctors still prescribed cannabis use over alcohol or o***m.

Cannabis became highly regarded amongst Protestant theologians in the 1860s. In the 1890s, marriage guides often recommended cannabis as an aphrodisiac.

Cannabis was the number one medicine in America up until 1863, when it was replaced by morphine. It maintained second place until it was replaced by Aspirin in 1901.
