Sure but first it should be legal in your state. That type of pot is known for pain relief. There are others that are good for sleep aid.

Read about Sativex on GW Pharmaceutical's site. I like the R&D section showing all the uses: http://www.gwpharm.com/r-and-d.aspx

I read somewhere that some people find the peppermint oil in the spray to be irritating to the mucus glands. GW may make a version without peppermint.

According to their site, it's currently going through clinical trials in the US for cancer pain only. I hope they clear it for other uses, especially in light of the fact that the US govt has issued patents for its use for a variety of problems. I'm especially interested in it's neuroprotective properties.
