Physicians

Because each patient is different, we recommend starting patients off with a product that is lower in THC (or focus on CBD products and products that do not require smoking) and gradually increasing the dosage. Hydropothecary is always available to assist patients in product selection.

Dried Cannabis

- Can be smoked, vaporized, used in edibles or tea.

- Immediate effects when smoked, and does not last as long as other methods of consumption.

- Hydropothecary is the only LP to offer Decarb, a fine milled medical marijuana designed for oral consumption line. Using a proprietary drying method and exacting scientific standards, we decarboxylate (decarb) the cannabis, which activates the cannabinoids (THC and CBD). After a fine milling process, the resulting product has the consistency of flour, giving patients more options. When used with our CannaCap capsule product and capsule maker*, you have the option of consuming cannabis the same way you would any other pill -- easily, discreetly, without having to smoke or vaporize it.

Cannabis Oil

- Allows for a more precise dosage.

- Can be ingested directly under the tongue or used in edibles.

- Onset of effects is gradual and can last longer.

Under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR), a patient's order will be delivered in tamper-evident packaging and child-resistant containers with client-specific labelling. Orders will be shipped directly to a patient's home.

Currently, most insurance plans do not cover medical marijuana. In most cases, medical marijuana may be claimed as a medical expense for tax purposes.

Elixir is delivered in a spray of fresh peppermint, which in addition to freshening breath, is known to offer health benefits. Peppermint has traditionally been used to help with digestive tract pain and a recent scientific literature review found evidence of peppermint oil decreasing the duration, frequency, and severity of pain in patients suffering from undifferentiated functional abdominal pain (see Anheyer, Dennis, et al. "Herbal Medicines for Gastrointestinal Disorders in Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review." Pediatrics (2017)). Decarb is another smoke-free product offered by Hydropothecary.
