CBIS - Newly Released Product Line

IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - October 21, 2016) - Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTC PINK: CBIS), a U.S. company specializing in the development of cannabis-based medicines, is pleased to announce Cannabis Science Products are now hitting shelves in legal dispensaries within the State of California.

Cannabis Science CEO Raymond C. Dabney stated, “We are very pleased to announce that MedMen of West Hollywood is the first of many dispensaries in Southern California to receive our “When Nature Meets Science” product line. MedMen currently has the CBIS Tincture, the CBIS Healing Balm and the highly sought after Solace Drops. MedMen, one of the largest dispensaries in Los Angeles, not only welcomed our product line to their retail shelves, they are looking forward to more of our new product launches.”

This is the first of many dispensaries that are scheduled to receive the new CBIS product line for legal self-medicating patients in the State of California. As we approach the vote for Proposition 64, Cannabis Science has ramped up production of their medicinal lines. This is intended for the self-medicating patients that are in legal medicinal and recreational states.

The potential revenue stream for Cannabis Science should increase dramatically with the additions to the legal Cannabis market sector. With statewide initiatives on the ballot in several states, CBIS will initially focus on the California market, as it is the most populous state in the US and has the world’s sixth-largest economy with a gross domestic product of about $2.5 trillion.
