Medical Marijuana is now for Sale

July 26th, 2016 by Mike Vasilinda

The first legal medical marijuana sale took place in the State Capitol today. Trulieve, the north Florida licensed grower sold the fist low THC marijuana to Dallas Nagy. Nagy got several doses delivered over the weekend and picked more up ion the store today. Nagy suffers from a Parkinson like disease. His caretaker, Joann Bravata says the initial response has been positive.

“It’s gonna help him relax. He’s very nervous. He’ll be able to think clearly because of a lack of sleep.  He’s in a lot of pain,you know, medicines cause many different after effects. but with this, it’ll just calm him and there’s no bad side effects with this” says the caretaker.

Nagy himself says he’s glad to be the first to try the low dose cannabis.

“The first couple of nights I’ve been able to sleep. It relieves my cramping, what more can I say. it helps, and it gives other people like me hope” says Nagy.

Low dose THC does not produce an euphoria, but full strength THC goes on the market in August for terminally ill patients.  Current law does not go as far as what would be legal if voters approve Amendment 2 on the November ballot.
