The medical cannabis opportunity
Medical cannabis is experiencing a surge of demand in Europe – but a lack of the usual harmonised regulatory framework and diversity in attitudes to cannabis from country to country could pose a challenge.
Medical cannabis has shown efficacy in trials and is being deployed legally in medical settings as a therapeutic for conditions ranging from palliative care for cancer patients to an appetite stimulant in patients with AIDS-related wasting syndrome.

Late Power Trip frontman Riley Gale s cause of death has been confirmed by MetalSucks after checking with the Dallas County Medical Examiner’s office. The singer died from pulmonary edema as a result of a fentanyl overdose.
A pulmonary edema causes excess fluid to build up in the lungs and is often a result of congestive heart failure, according to Medical News Today. Gale was found unresponsive on the floor at home, the report reads, and his death was ruled accidental. His history of Xanax abuse and depression were noted in the report as well, according to MetalSucks.
While very high levels of fentanyl were found in Gale s system, the only other substance found was marijuana. Levels of fentanyl that measure 7ng/mL (nanograms per milliliter) or higher are typically fatal, as mentioned by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, and 22.5ng/mL was found in Gale s blood. The autopsy was performed on Aug. 26 of 2020, the day after he was found dead.
