Why in the heck the NHS do not just approve the stuff and get big pharma to formulate it in tablet form or something I will never know, the active ingredient does show great benefits for many chronic conditions that other drugs don't do anything for. Provided a doctor is prescribing it and managing it what is the issue? I don't view it any differently from morphine.
As a long term user I am not sure a doctor is needed to be honest. As long as the THC content of the oil is below the 0.2% threshold then its nothing more than a food supplement really. I can't see why a doctor is needed because you have to build the dose up to where it will benefit you. Everybody is different.
If we are going to go down he route Canada has taken and legalise THC then yes that would need monitoring somehow. Quite how is another matter because illegal canabis plant is widely available in most towns. Turning that into oil is a press so really anybody could do it quite easily.
No no, I was talking of doctors prescribing much stronger pills of the stuff, it has shown great promise for pain management and in other long term conditions.
Yes thats what I am talking about as well. CBD oil isn't really that strong as the most potent you can get is 6% depending on bottle size and thats with under 0.2% THC content.
THC is the main health benefit. However this is the stuff that makes you halucinate as its whats found in weed. THC is illegal in this country at anything over 0.2%. BUT and its a big but, its widely available in every town pretty much. Therefore doctors prescribing it is pretty much pointless. This is why Cannabis is a problem to the pharmaceutical companies because they can't take over the worlds supply of it as its already widely established. So if it can't come through the correct channels then doctors cannot prescribe it. The reason its not legalised here is because nobody can make any money out of it other than the small individual dealers who are already operating.
I think your getting confused. THC which is the main medicinal part of the plant is illegal in this country. You can produce a single cannabis plant for around £20 depending on variety/strain. Of that 15% of the plant will end up as pure oil with around 15-20% THC content. So using very basic maths you can get strong THC oil for £20.
Strong CBD oil is around £200.
THC is what you need but you won’t get the big pharmaceutical companies selling THC at £20 I can assure you.
know a few people that have used it and say it works great
was talking to a machinery rep at a feildday and he was telling me his wife had a hell of alot of pain the doctor said she could eather drink 2 bottles of wine a night or smoke a joint as could not get the oil. she took up smoking pain gone could sleep etc etc ..the rep said if there was a vote on letting people use it for pain relief he would sign it in a heartbeat after seeing what it could do to help people in pain
