How is cocaine a schedule II drug while marijuana is a schedule I?


Cocaine is sometimes used in eye surgery. So it has a medical use, though very restricted and not often used. MJ does not have an accepted medical use, at least not at the federal level.

I don't think schedule 1 means something is neccesarily more dangerous, it just means that it is addictive/abusable but does not have any accepted medical use. Schedule 2 means it is addictive/abusable, but the substance does have an accepted medical use (morphine or oxycodone as an example).

I'm a recreational user. I'll pop two ibuprofen at the first hint of a headache. Pretty sure I'll be dropping a couple later today.

Here's my morning cocktail of pills

Pantoprazole
Ramipril
Hydrochlorothiazide
Allopurinol

And Amitriptyline at night just for fun.

My dealer (pharmacist) loves to see me coming!

I too am a regular drug user. I start almost every morning with 2 or 3 Excedrin...and I also have to have my nightly fix of blood pressure meds.

:( I am such a wild man.

I've probably got you beat. BP meds in the morning with baby aspirin, with more BP meds at night with Crestor (anti-cholesterol stuff).

You're just over the top, dude...That must be why you wear the fedora.
