Sativex is perfect example for this thread.
Company patented "THC" in pill form and want to stop others from making pills using THC. THC however, is a natural chemical and should never be patented in the first place.
Again though, in my post above I link perfect exacmple of drug that was released to public BEFORE patent was issued. |
I'm not in Canada nor do I know what their drug administration does. I was talking about the U.S., where Sativex is still in testing stages and not available.
