Medical cannabis in the UK is available through private specialist clinics via prescription. The products are legally imported and manufactured to pharmaceutical standards. They come in various forms including oils, capsules, and dried flower for vaporisation.

What is the difference between the prescription product and CBD oil?

CBD oil available in health shops is a food supplement and is not regulated as a medicine. Prescription cannabis-based products (CBPMs) are regulated pharmaceutical medicines, prescribed by specialist doctors, and may contain THC as well as CBD in controlled, tested doses.
