It is no question that we need new ways and medications to manage pain outside of opiates. Could cannabis be the solution?
Dr. Andrew Coop is joining us again this episode to talk about THC isomeres.

Today Dr. Coop sits down with Dr. Hal Altman MD, MS, and talks about his testimony to the United States Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP), his mentor John Lewis, and where cannabinoids could fit into pain management practices.
