Cannabis And/Or Aspirin

As the interest in cannabis increases .....
.
Some random thoughts about Cannabis as talked about in
today's health concerns. Note: this article is produced
purely from my personal research on the subject and is
not medical advice or a recommendation.
.
My search came across the following information which
I believe to be true. 
.
The aspirin industry fought a warning label for five
years – during which 300 children died of Reye’s
syndrome.
.
When Bayer introduced aspirin in 1899, cannabis was
America’s number one painkiller. Until marijuana
prohibition began in 1937, the US Pharmacopoeia listed
cannabis as the primary medicine for over 100 diseases.
Cannabis was such an effective analgesic that the
American Medical Association (AMA) argued against
prohibition on behalf of medical progress. Since the
herb is extremely potent and essentially non-toxic,
the AMA considered it a potential wonder drug.
.
Instead, the invention of aspirin gave birth to the
modern pharmaceutical industry and Americans switched
away from cannabis in the name of “progress.” But was
it really progress? There can be no doubt that aspirin
has a long history as the drug of choice for the self-
treatment of migraines, arthritis, and other chronic
pain. It is cheap and effective.
.
But is it as safe as cannabis?
.
History:
•Marijuana has been used for over 5,000 years.
