Medical cannabis has been legal in the UK since November 2018, but access to this medicinal treatment remains limited. Over the years, more products and strains have become available to patients, primarily as prescribed by specialist doctors for conditions that conventional treatments haven’t helped. Here are some of the medical cannabis strains available in the UK: 1. Bedrocan: This is one of the most well-known medical cannabis strains globally, originating from the Netherlands. It contains a high concentration of THC (22%) and is often used to treat conditions such as chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, and Tourette’s syndrome. 2. Bediol: This strain is also produced by Bedrocan. It has a balanced content of THC and CBD, which makes it suitable for patients who respond well to both cannabinoids. This strain is often prescribed for pain relief, anxiety, and fibromyalgia. 3. Bedrolite: Another strain from Bedrocan, Bedrolite is high in CBD (9%) and low in THC (less than 1%), making it ideal for patients who benefit from CBD’s therapeutic effects without experiencing the psychoactive effects of THC. This strain is used for epilepsy and inflammation. 4. Sativex: This is a mouth spray that combines THC and CBD. It’s the first cannabis-based medicine to be licensed in the UK and is primarily used for the treatment of spasticity in multiple sclerosis. 5. Epidyolex: This is CBD-based epilepsy medication approved by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for use in the NHS. It’s used specifically to treat seizures in two rare and severe types of epilepsy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome. 6. Tilray 2:100: This is a high CBD, low THC oil often used for children with epilepsy. CBD has been shown to reduce the frequency and severity of seizures in various forms of childhood epilepsy. It’s essential to note that medical cannabis should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider. While this list provides some of the medical cannabis strains available in the UK, it’s not exhaustive, and availability can vary depending on individual patient needs and regulatory changes.
