The intravenous route is far more effective with THC compounds than the oral route. As Dr. Leo Flollister reported more than a decade after Edgewood trials with TFIC ended, the main psychoactive part of natural marijuana (delta-9 TFIC) is several times more effective by the intravenous route than when smoked. In turn, when it is smoked, it is considerably more effective as by the oral route. If these differences apply to the more potent synthetic isomers, incapacitating symptoms might appear after very low doses. One or more of the... [Pg.41]

The resin secreted by Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa, varieties of hemp, is known variously as marijuana, hashish or bhang and is abused as a hallucinogenic drug. It appears however to have some beneficial properties and is currently under test as an antiemetic in cancer therapy. The secretion contains a number of interrelated oxygen heterocycles, some of which are shown in Scheme 281, which attempts to indicate their biosynthetic relationships (70MI22401). The cannabinoids are probably derived from a monoterpene unit based on p-menthane and 5-n-pentylresorcinol (olivetol), acting the part of a polyketide. 2,2-Dimethylchromene biosynthesis also requires the intervention of an isoprene fragment. [Pg.877]
