Cannabis spray found to help relieve cancer pain
Cancer patients who used a cannabis mouthspray had their level of pain reduced by 30%, a study has shown.
The cannabis-based spray, like a mouth freshener, was used on 177 patients by researchers from Edinburgh University.
They found it reduced pain levels by 30% in a group of cancer patients, all in the Edinburgh area, who had not been helped by morphine or other medicines.
