#DEA to reclassify #marijuana as a lower-risk drug, reports say
Marijuana's move to #schedule3 in the ranks of ketamine, testosterone, and products containing less than 90 milligrams of codeine, would be a nod to its potential medical benefits and would shift federal policy in line with many states. To date, 38 states have already legalized medical marijuana. https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/04/dea-to-reclassify-marijuana-as-a-lower-risk-drug-reports-say/

Federal health dept. says #marijuana should be downgraded to #Schedule3 #drug. It's currently a #Schedule1 #controlledsubstance—keeping marijuana in a group defined as having "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse," which includes heroin and LSD.
If #DEA accepts #HHS's rescheduling recommendation, it could ease marijuana access. https://arstechnica.com/health/2023/08/federal-health-dept-says-marijuana-should-be-downgraded-to-schedule-3-drug/
