Edible

An edible is any food product infused with cannabis extracts, such as THC or CBD. THC is only available on prescription in the UK, but you may find CBD gummies, chocolates, baked goods, and beverages on the high-street.

In the United Kingdom, eligible patients may be prescribed medical cannabis pastilles, which are soft tablets to be chewed. Whilst medical cannabis pastilles may look similar to edibles, these are not food products and are treated appropriately like any other medicine. This means they are manufactured to meet strict regulatory guidance to ensure their consistency and safety. These can also only be prescribed and are not otherwise available to be purchased in the UK.

Pastilles are an alternative method of consuming medical cannabis, for patients who cannot tolerate other forms or who are looking for a more discreet option.
