“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Sandoz abruptly stopped producing human grade LSD and psilocybin in 1965, 1966 for clinical trials: adverse reactions were so high, outcomes so poor that the reputation of Sandoz and trial clinicians plummeted.

Un día te tomas una foto con ella y con David Beckham en la escuela.
Años después es tu novia, te casas con ellas, tienes hijos. Ganas el Balón de Oro y le dedicas el premio:
"Para mi esposa, tú eres mi mejor amiga. Tú querías este premio más que yo. Hemos pasado por altibajos. Lo hemos logrado. Siempre quisiste lo mejor para mí. Te sacrificaste por mis sueños. Esto no habría sido posible sin ti. Te amo"

A goal worthy of a Ballon d'Or winner 🏆

No different in Ireland
Australians are buying health products and services online faster than our regulators can keep up: commercial telehealth, weight-loss prescribing and now largely unregulated injectables. Our emergency departments are already seeing more and more anaphylaxis, and other serious health issues related to these agents.
In August, I wrote to the Health Minister calling for a parliamentary inquiry into telehealth services and online prescribing of peptides, medicinal cannabis, Ozempic, and other medications.
Today’s reports highlight how urgently we need that sort of inquiry, and why its scope should cover all of the online healthcare market.

In Italy this week, and Italy gets it.
Prime Minister @GiorgiaMeloni shared the same message we’ve been sharing for years. Speaking to the recovery community here in San Patrignano, she said today’s cannabis has THC levels on average 30 times higher than a few decades ago, and that calling it soft is irresponsible.
A world leader saying what too many won’t. Grazie, Italia.

Two University of Mississippi students died in September with one of kratom's chemicals in their blood.
Kratom is sold at gas stations and corner stores. It hits the same brain receptors as opioids, and one of its compounds can be 13 times stronger than morphine.
States with industry-backed "kratom consumer protection" laws saw more than four times the rate of life-threatening outcomes and deaths compared with states that banned it.
@KevinSabet in @cityjournal: states don't have to wait for Washington.

Northern Ireland's collapsing health service is a scandal; Stormont knew this would happen - and has allowed it. Vast sums have been paid to temporary staff to prop up a system MLAs admitted a decade ago was unsustainable. Now even that isn’t working.

FRIDAY FACT: Nearly half of adults who use marijuana and alcohol use them at the same time. Among adults with marijuana addiction, it's as high as 82%.
Remember the legalization pitch? "It's safer than alcohol. People will switch."
They didn't switch. They added.

ALT 49% of adults who use both marijuana and alcohol use them at the same time, according to a NIDA study in JAMA Network Open.

what I would like is for someone with programming skills to make a bit of software to search the internet for GMC registered drs making these sort complaints and report, as well as ASA. let me know if you have these very particular skills and are in need of a thankless task
the @ASA_UK complaint I made was upheld about Do Health @drchatterjeeuk. Commercial screening brings false positives, false reassurance, overdiagnosis.
Will the @gmcuk act on the dozens of drs making false claims and have commercial conflicts of interests?

The representative of the United States to a warmongering dictator. Speaking like a supplicant and sycophant. Is there any American who does not think this is profoundly un American?

Over the weekend, @LukeNiforatos co-founder of @GoodDrugPolicy took on Mac Haddow, a lead lobbyist for the American Kratom Association on Newsmax America Right Now:
"This is actually a situation where this is a lot like OxyContin. We have an industry that is out there lying about its drug."

Headlines say teen marijuana use is falling. Here's what they leave out:
• The 11 states with the highest teen use all have legal marijuana
• California teen use rose after legalization
• About half of teens who use now meet the criteria for addiction
