Cannabis is complicated. It can mean many things, including a specific type of plant, the chemicals in the plant, synthetic analogs, or products that have these components. The doses of the most widely discussed pharmacologically active ingredients, THC and CBD, vary by product, and the onset and bioavailability vary by how it is delivered. If you believe the evidence for efficacy to manage symptoms like neuropathic pain, how do you even start to think about recommending these products to patients? On today's podcast, we answer that question with our guests, David Casarett and Eloise Theisen. David is a physician who wrote the book “Stoned: A Doctor's Case for Medical Marijuana” and gave a TED talk on “A Doctor's Case for Medical Marijuana” that was watched over 3 million times. Eloise is a palliative care NP at Stanford and co-founder of The Radicle Health Clinician Network.

David Casarett, Professor of Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine and Chief of Palliative Care for the Duke Health System, challenges our mainstream healthcare system to look for inspiration in a setting often considered taboo: the medical marijuana dispensary.

David Casarett on a solution that may help a family who is grieving after the loss of a loved one who has been in hospice ~ "This is something . . . in a hospice setting falls to family members to deal with. It's one of these things that as you're dealing with the loss of a loved one, as you're dealing with all of the other things that you have to manage after somebody dies, also being faced with the problem of getting rid of dangerous medications. That's one thing we actually could fix. We could make that better. We can't take away their grief and their sense of loss. We can't help them with all the other management and logistic issues they need to deal with, but we can, at least, help them to take care of these dangerous drugs that are sitting around in the house." David Casarett, MD, MA - Chief Medical Officer DisposeRx David Casarett: The trick for us is giving those patients exactly what they need but no more. Brian Wilson: The opioid crisis is an epidemic with many faces. To a member of the law enforcement community, opioids are dangerous substances to be managed and controlled. To the parent who's lost a child to addiction opioids are a gateway drug that can lead to a lifetime of loss and regret. But to those in pain management, opioids are necessary tools to help hurting patients at a time when little else can. Dr. David Casarett is the Chief Medical Officer at DisposeRx. As a professional with years of experience helping his patients manage pain, he brings a unique perspective to our conversation about the opioid crisis, and we start at the beginning. Downstream Effects of Increased Opioid Prescribing David Casarett: Many of us back in the '90s, early 2000s saw pain as the fifth vital sign, as a problem we had to solve, and became much more aggressive at prescribing pain medications, including opioids. Many of those prescriptions were legitimate for real needs and patients who were suffering, but some of them weren't. Gradually, the tide began to turn and there was an influx of opioids to people who didn't necessarily need them and a black market. Many of those patients, when that supply of drugs became unavailable, or less available, or more expensive turned to other forms of opioids including black tar heroin that was imported from Mexico. I wouldn't say all this started because of physicians, especially since many of those physicians like myself were really trying to do right by our patients, but I think we are seeing many of the downstream effects of increased opioid prescribing 10, 15 years ago, which we're now dealing with today. Brian Wilson: You are described to me as a palliative physician. What is that exactly? And, tell me a little bit about your credentials and what you bring to this particular story. David Casarett on Palliative Care David Casarett: Sure. So palliative care is a specialty of medicine and of nursing and social work, and other disciplines, by the way, it's not just physicians, focused on improving quality of life for patients with serious illness. We help with pain and symptom management for patients with cancer. We help with decision making under difficult circumstances for patients, say with heart failure. We provide emotional and spiritual support, meaning our team does, our nurses, our chaplains, our social workers. We really try to improve decision making and improve quality of life for patient who are going through a rough period of time, patients and their families, I should add. Brian Wilson: And often they're in hospices. What happens there at the end, let's say, of the journey? Either you get better, or in some cases, the pain management was used to support you through the end of life and now you've passed on. So what happens now to all those drugs that were prescribed? Hospice Care - Disposition of Leftover Medications David Casarett: Well, that's a good question. And just to be clear,

As a critical care doctor, Jessica Zitter has seen plenty of “Hail Mary” attempts to save dying patients go bad—attempts where doctors try interventions that don’t change the outcome, but do lead to more patient suffering. It’s left her distrustful of flashy medical technology and a culture that insists that more treatment is always better. But when a new patient goes into cardiac arrest, the case doesn’t play out the way Jessica expected. She finds herself fighting for hours to revive him—and reaching for a game-changing technology that uncomfortably blurs the lines between life and death.    Resources Talking about end-of-life stuff can be hard!

On the show this week we talk to University of Pennsylvania professor of medicine David Casarett about his book Shocked: Adventures in Bringing Back the Recently Dead.Casarett explains the science of resuscitation—and what exactly it means to be “dead.” We talk about cryonics, the idea that you might be able to preserve your brain—or your whole body—by freezing it immediately after you die, and then bring it back to life in the future once science figures out how to do that. We also talk to Casarett about how likely it is that one day we might be able to put humans in a state of hibernation or suspended animation.This episode also features a conversation with Tara Smith, an epidemiologist who is an expert on the Ebola virus, and has been debunking a large number of myths about the latest outbreak.iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/inquiring-minds/id711675943RSS: feeds.feedburner.com/inquiring-mindsStitcher: stitcher.com/podcast/inquiring-minds
