Morphine-cannabis super-painkiller August 11, 2008 - NewScientist.com
Pain can often be better managed when two types of painkiller are used together. For example, it has recently become known that cannabinoids such as THC, the psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, enhance the painkilling effects of opioids such as morphine.
Teaming them up could allow doses to become smaller, reducing the possibility of addiction. But a simple mixture of the drugs produces unpredictable results because the body absorbs them at different rates.
A possible solution is to join together THC and morphine to create a hybrid molecule that is snipped apart by the body, say Joseph Holtman and Peter Crooks at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine in Lexington, Kentucky.
Their idea is to bind the two drugs together using a linking molecule such as an ester. When the body snips this linking group, both drugs are released at the site where they are needed. That should ensure both drugs will be absorbed at the same rate, making it easier to work out doses for patients.

meh too. i mean i would try it but depending on the effects i may or may not prefer to just smoke weed with some methadone or something. i just see there being differences between taking morphine and smoking and taking morphine with THC...i dunno thats just me

Fucking sweet!
I love how on opiates every hit of MJ you take is just more euphoria built onto the last one as soon as you exhale.
This could actually be useful, as it stated, cutting down doses and addiction potential.
I hope this thing pans out!

An opioid is any semi or fully synthetic derivative of opium. an opiate is a naturally occurring chemical in opium whether extracted or created in a lab. Duh!
