"Probably the most frequent question that I get asked is how do you dose medical marijuana. I think that’s a very good question because there isn’t a simple answer just yet. And really it comes down to trying to measure what’s in the marijuana or the marijuana derivative, or trying it out and seeing what works for you, and at the moment I think we’re really just trying it out and seeing what works for you. It’s very clear that measurement of these agents is in the works. Many laboratories around the state are working hard to figure out how to measure the active ingredients and prepare a label that will be meaningful to you as the customer so you will be able to repeat this whenever you need it. So you have to remember that there are over 80 different cannabinoids in marijuana, and several other unrelated compounds that are also immunologically and neurologically effective. So, figuring out how to measure these in a meaningful manner for you the consumer is a work in progress."
