Mr Davies said the bottle contains 52 doses but only lasts two weeks once opened. This means a cost of £200 a month - a price the NHS cannot afford.
He said treatment had been trialled in Europe where the manufacturers, GW Pharmaceuticals, were hoping to get a licence.
Mr Davies, who said he is a shareholder in the company, added: "It was cleared for use in the UK in November 2005 but primary care trusts decided that the drug was too expensive.
