The Title of this publication as "Drug Injury", allows a wide range of sub-topics and an almost endless level of health related information. Thus, the inclusion of this Chapter is a de facto statement that Marijuana/Cannabinoids are an integral part of our Drug Lexicon. Historically, the Medical/Drug aspect of Marijuana is well documented in the On-Line entity at ProCon.org as recently as 08/13/2013. And, lest the reader retain some skepticism as to the Drug categorization of Marijuana/Cannabinoids, our U.S. Government was issued a Patent # 6630507 in Oct. 2003 for Marinol. This synthetic Cannabinoid Drug had a recommendation as "cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants". This Patent stands not withstanding the statement of "no medical use" for Marijuana in the 1970 placement as a Schedule 1 substance in the Controlled Substance Act. And, even more incredulous, given the 1937 Marijuana Stamp Act that established Marijuana as an Illegal Substance.
