"I am also invested in RXII which would get the dreadful THC out of Cannabis plants ....."

This statement reflects relative ignorance of how cannabis can affect various medical problems.

Are you then truly incapable of thinking and writing coherently, Koog?

Genus Cannabis belongs to the Cannabbaceaae family of plants with each Genus having widely differentiated species. Genus Sativa violates the rules being a species.

You might as well be writing of elm trees from which we get a large variety of chemicals, including soap and aspirin, as being poisonous while one variety called the Chilean Soap Tree yields a valuable vaccine adjuvant that helps power the breakthrough malaria vaccine.

as with most drugs, natural cannabinoids are more effective and have fewer unnecessary side effects than synthetically derived elements.

Pure horse manure.

In fact, THC, the primary joy juice in cannabinoids - some cannabinoids, Koog - has been an approved drug for decades branded marinol.


Marinol

GENERIC NAME(S): Dronabinol

Uses

Dronabinol is used to treat nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy. It is usually used when other drugs to control nausea and vomiting have not been successful. Dronabinol is also used to treat loss of appetite and weight loss in patients with HIV infection. Dronabinol (also called THC) is a man-made form of the active natural substance in marijuana.
How to use Marinol

Read the Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start taking dronabinol and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually up to 4 to 6 times daily if you are taking it to control nausea and vomiting or twice daily (before lunch and before dinner) if you are taking it to treat appetite loss. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.

The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. If you are taking this medication to control nausea and vomiting, your dosage may also be based on your body size......

Insys aerosolized the drug to avoid the harm and delay from a pill going through the digestive system and got its formulation branded a dangerous addictive drug because of political bull.

Drugs versus Biologics

A biologic is manufactured in a living system such as a microorganism, or plant or animal cells. Most biologics are very large, complex molecules or mixtures of molecules. Many biologics are produced using recombinant DNA technology.

A drug is typically manufactured through chemical synthesis, which means that it is made by combining specific chemical ingredients in an ordered process.

Drugs generally have well-defined chemical structures, and a finished drug can usually be analyzed to determine all its various components. By contrast it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to characterize a complex biologic by testing methods available in the laboratory, and some of the components of a finished biologic may be unknown.

If you have a doctor that prefers biologics to synthetics, you would be well advised to dump the quack and get a real doctor.

That may not be totally true in the case of cannabinoids because research is very restricted and expensive thanks to the lies of politicians and cooperation of regulators but doctors are hardly equipped to analyze pop concoctions that have no FDA stamp of approval or regulation like approved biologic drugs.
