The Cannabis plant has a long history of medical use. China’s first surgeon used it almost 2000 years ago for anesthesia after tincturing it in wine. In India, it was used for gastrointestinal pain and the pain of childbirth, and in the Islamic world as an analgesic. In 1996, California voters approved Proposition 215 – the Compassionate Use Act – legalizing the use, possession, and cultivation of cannabis by patients with a physician’s recommendation.
