International Medical Cannabis Conference, organized by NGO “United Experience”, NGO Ukrainian Medical Cannabis Association in partnership with the National Pharmaceutical University (Kharkiv) and the University of Medical Sciences of Lithuania (Kaunas), will take place in Kharkiv on April 20.
The scientific study of the chemicals in marijuana, called cannabinoids, has led to two FDA-approved medications that contain cannabinoid chemicals in pill form. Continued research may lead to more medications.
Drugs based on cannabis effectively help in the treatment of a number of serious diseases, such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
