To help win U.S. approval, the firm has hired U.S. drug experts as well as
Andrea Barthwell, former medical director for federal drug czar John
Walters.
"Having this product available will certainly slow down the dash to make the
crude plant material available to patients across the country," said
Barthwell, an addiction medicine specialist.
Some medical marijuana activists suggested that Sativex could help spur
efforts to legalize medicinal use of leafy marijuana.
"In practical terms," said Mirken, of the Marijuana Policy Project, "Sativex
is to marijuana as a cup of coffee is to coffee beans."
Barthwell drew a different comparison.
"Comparing crude marijuana to Sativex is like comparing a raging forest fire
to the fire in your home's furnace," she said. "While both provide heat, one
is out of control."
