Pharmacy Board Recommends Cannabis Oil Be Schedule II POSTED 4:18 PM, JANUARY 5, 2015, BY STEPHANIE MOORE, UPDATED AT 08:26PM, JANUARY 5, 2015

DES MOINES, Iowa — The Iowa Board of Pharmacy met Monday to discuss a request to re-classify marijuana.
Right now marijuana is listed in Iowa code as a schedule I, or a drug with no proven medical use.
Carl Olsen of Des Moines petitioned the board last July asking them to classify it as a schedule II, or drug with some accepted medical treatment.
“We don`t have any other plants in schedule I that are used to make pharmaceutical drugs, they`re all in schedule II or lower,” says Olsen.
