reclassify Marinol (dronabinol) from Schedule II to Schedule III

December 1998

The DEA is proposing to reclassify Marinol (dronabinol) from Schedule II to Schedule III.

Marinol has a low potential for abuse. Its slow onset doesn't produce the same high that people get from smoking marijuana.

Reclassifying Marinol might encourage more physicians to prescribe it...and reduce the demand for "medical marijuana."
