It has been a long time being discussed whether Cannabis sativa, a euphoric and relaxing derivative of indian hemp, is a dangerous drug of addiction or a source of innocuous pleasure. The dry leaves of indian hemp are called marijuana; the resin obtained from the flowers, hashish. In moderate doses, indica hemp produces a sensation of excitement, acute awareness and well-being, followed by a phase of tranquility and then fatigue.
Dependence on the drug can be treated by keeping the addict at a controlled dose, replacing the drug with a similar but less potent compound or controlling deprivation under medical supervision.
