Cannabis Science Brand Products To Be Released October 2011 - Successful Cancer Treatments With Cannabis Extracts

DENVER, Sep 26, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Cannabis Science, Inc. CBIS , a pioneering US biotech company developing pharmaceutical cannabis products, is pleased to announce shareholder guidance on the upcoming release of the first Cannabis Science brand of products. Cannabis extract-based products will initially be made available to licensed medical marijuana patients in Colorado. The Company is excited to announce that its proprietary brand of pharmaceutical products is nearing commercialization.
It is expected that in October 2011, Cannabis Science will contract the production and manufacturing of its branded products for distribution and sale through selected Colorado State licensed dispensaries. The first products will address the needs of patients choosing to use concentrated cannabis extracts to treat their ailments. For example, Cannabis Science has frequently been contacted by cancer patients seeking extract-based formulations for topical or internal use. Cannabis Science is responding to these patient requests for quality products. In the very near future, Cannabis Science will announce details of availability.

In light of the accumulating anecdotal reports of the successful cancer treatments with cannabis extracts, the Company will continue to keep patients updated on current peer-reviewed scientific literature supporting the historical and modern use of cannabis to treat "tumors". Unlike conventional methods, cannabis medicines have an outstanding safety profile allowing patients in states with medical marijuana laws to safely make informed decisions to legally self-administration of various cannabis-based preparations.

Dr. Robert Melamede Ph.D., Cannabis Science president & CEO, stated, "Based on our continued commitment to educate people about the medical value of cannabis, and increasing shareholder value with revenues, releasing these products is a natural progression for us as the world has it's cannabis awakening. Cannabis Science believes everyone has the right to fair and equal access to cannabis-based treatments worldwide.

We believe marijuana prohibition is unconstitutional. It denies people Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Additionally, furthermore, the current legal status violates the equal protection clause. People have legal access to cannabis-based medicines in some states, while others are criminal for using their medicine. Cannabis Science will remedy this situation through educating the masses and by taking our cannabis-based products through the FDA process for nationwide distribution. Eventually, all Americans will have access to a safe and effective FDA approved medicine regardless of which state they live in. To maintain that marijuana is a dangerous, addictive drug with no medical value is scientifically absurd. Cannabis medicines, with no effective lethal dose, are far safer than aspirin, acetaminophen, and most other OTC drugs that kill thousands of Americans every year.
