New medical marijuana uses approved in Connecticut

HARTFORD — Patients with intractable headaches, rheumatoid arthritis and muscular dystrophy will soon be able to treat their ailments with medical marijuana in Connecticut. The legislature’s Regulation Review Committee unanimously voted Tuesday to expand the approved uses of medical marijuana for palliative care. At the recommendation of the Connecticut Board of Physicians, the new regulation adds eight new conditions that can be treated with medical marijuana in patients 18 and older. Minor patients can now treat muscular dystrophy and a genetic disorder known as brittle bone disease with medical marijuana.
