2 Despite there being testimonials and evidence about the benefits of medical marijuana in alleviating numerous health conditions, many states have still not legalized it. It wonders many about the reasons for not legalizing cannabis even when its benefits are proven. The possession, use, and sale of cannabis that contain more than 0.3% THC are illegal as per the federal law in the US. Marijuana is a Schedule 1 drug, and it is considered to offer no medical use that is accepted as per law. The law finds Medical Marijuana New York to be a high potential for abuse which may make the receiver physically and psychologically dependent on it. The use of medical marijuana is illegal. However, there are states where Medical Marijuana Card in New Yorkare legal formedicinal uses.

3 DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION CHALLENGE For several years, the organizations have been petitioning the DEA or the drug enforcement administration to reschedule the cannabis substance. It takes decades for the petition to be considered and even after that the outcome ends in denying the rescheduling of marijuana After the evidence got reviewed at the federal level, they claim that there is no medical value of Medical Marijuana New York. It is despite the point that THC got rescheduled in the form of a pill in the year 1985. So it is surprising how the law does not get passed when it says that a part of the cannabis holds medical usage, but the natural form of marijuana lacks it. It is still a topic of debate, and unfortunately, this is causing much stubborn resistance at the higher level.

4 CATCH 22 The DEA or the Drug Enforcement Administration and the FDA or the Food and Drug Administrators are partners. So it takes them three months to pass the medication.The FDA is dependent on the DEA’s will to guide them on the subject on the use of marijuana, which is considered to be a drug. It only leads to more miscommunication where the DEA states that there is no approval from the FDA on the marijuana preparations, which lets them support their stance on the prohibition of cannabis. The FDA, on the other hand, claims that they are not in a position to approve cannabis since marijuana cannot go through any clinical trials to check for dosage, consistency, and practices.

5 Thus as per Catch 22, the DEA will not reschedule cannabis because it does not have approval from the FDA and the FDA will not approve of marijuana because of the scheduling from DEA. JUMPING THE STEPS Even though the agencies prohibit the use of marijuana and stand in the way, Americans are moving ahead to get cannabis legalized and make the Medical Marijuana Card in New York Medical Marijuana Card in New York to enjoy the health benefits of cannabis No one knows of the future, but if the use of cannabis gets passed, then the FDA will be flooded with requests to approve the medicines, its applications, and cannabis-based therapies.
