Doctors push Ph med cannabis body
By Nidz Godino
"It has been almost 10 years since first medical cannabis bill has been filed in Congress…in that time, millions of patients abroad have been made to suffer less," according to letter, read by Philippine Society of Cannabinoid Medicine's founding president Dr. Gem Marq Mutia in Senate hearing medical benefits of marijuana has urged Sen. Robinhood Padilla to include creating national cannabis agency in his proposal to make cannabis accessible.
In letter to Senate health subcommittee presided by Padilla, PSCM asked Padilla to include in his Senate bill creation of the Philippine Medical Cannabis Agency, to be placed under Department of Health.
PMCA will have "medical cannabis advisory committee" with officials from Departments of Agriculture and Science and Technology as permanent members.
They also asked Padilla to make medical marijuana available in all tertiary government hospitals and not just select ones, as stated in proposed law.
Padilla said high time for the country to allow medical marijuana for patients with cancer and epilepsy.
During hearing, he shared findings of his working visit last May in Israel, known for its medical breakthroughs on marijuana, which is strictly regulated by the state as treatment for debilitating illnesses.
