The Arizona Department of Health Services again denied adding PTSD, depression, and migraines to the list of medical conditions that qualify people for a medical-marijuana card.
DHS Director Will Humble wrote on his blog that he “didn’t approve the petitions because of the lack of published data regarding the risks and benefits of using Cannabis to treat or provide relief for the petitioned conditions.”
As part of the state’s Medical Marijuana Act, people can periodically petition to get new conditions to the list of qualifying ailments, but they don’t make the list just by having a lot of public support.
