We had a neighbor that died 6 months ago, he was suffering from cancer on his

last years, ( he was 78), his doctor prescribed hydrocod/apap/7.5-325 for his

pain. He loved to smoke mariuana since it relaxed him and alleviated his pain;

however, the combination of this two drugs was the prime cause of his death,

had he abstained from one of the two, according to his doctor, he may have lived

longer; at least three or four more years.
