What is Medical Cannabis?
“A genus of sturdy plant species whose parts are used to produce hemp, medicinal products and adult-use stimulants. Cannabis can be prepared in numerous forms, including smokable flower, concentrates, infused in food items as edibles, or mixed into topical products. Cannabis use has been a medical and social staple in world civilizations for millennia and gained notoriety during the 19th century.” – Weedmaps
Medical cannabis is grown under State-regulated protocols to ensure that the patient is receiving a product that has been tested for the exact levels of cannabinoids and does not contain any harmful chemicals, fungus, or molds. Medical cannabis can only be purchased at a state-licensed dispensary.
Forms of Medical Cannabis
-
CAPSULES
A more traditional delivery method that may prove popular with patients who are new to cannabis.
-
TINCTURES
An increasingly popular delivery method, tinctures are discrete and their enhanced bioavailability reduces the time-to-onset, thereby enabling the patient to more effectively self-titrate. We offer a variety of tinctures in regular and extra strength.
-
TOPICAL LOTIONS/BALMS
Especially useful for patients suffering from joint pain, including arthritis. Typically, topicals contain two ounces of total product, including approximately 10 mg of active cannabinoids (e.g., CBD, THC).
-
TRANSDERMAL PATCHES
Transdermal patches allow patients to discreetly receive extended release low-dose therapeutic cannabis.
-
SMOKING
Cannabis smokers have a wide array of devices at their disposal, including hand pipes, water pipes, rolling papers, and hookahs. Each of these provides different experiences and influence the grade of smoke inhaled.
-
VAPORIZER PENS
This is a product that uses disposable oil-based cannabis cartridges and has proven very popular in other therapeutic cannabis markets. Vaporizing cannabis oil is a significantly healthier alternative to smoking.
-
SUBLINGUAL TABLETS
Like capsules, sublingual tablets are also a more traditional delivery method, but dissolve in the mouth, thereby increasing bioavailability and decreasing time to onset.
