What is the Drug Enforcement Agency drug schedule?
July 1, 2010
This is a method of listing drugs by their potential
uses and dangers. Drugs are rated from Schedule 1
(most dangerous and without medical use, e.g. heroin)
to 5 (least dangerous). Only drugs on Schedules 2-5
can be prescribed to patients. Cannabis is a schedule 1 drug in most states, and therefore cannot be prescribed. Ask yourelf why marinol is a schedule 3 drug and cannabis is not?
