Australian doctor claims medical marijuana is not a working treatment for pain relief

Medical marijuana is set to be legalised in Victoria, but one doctor says it shouldn’t be.

Tom Elliott spoke with Dr Dilip Kapur, a specialist pain medicine physician.

Dr Kapur is speaking at a conference about medical marijuana in Adelaide today.

He says the political push for cannabis to be legalised for pain relief because ‘people are suffering now’ is morally and socially irresponsible.
