In the evolving landscape of medical cannabis in Thailand, there is a growing clinical understanding of different cannabinoid profiles. While balanced CBD/THC ratios suit many patients, certain severe medical conditions may require high-potency therapeutic cultivars (often defined as exceeding 20-25% THC content).
This article outlines the medical context for high-THC applications.
Clinical Indications for High Potency
Under strict medical supervision in Thailand, high-THC strains are often considered for patients with established tolerance or severe symptoms resistant to other treatments, such as:
- Intractable Chronic Pain: Where lower doses fail to provide adequate analgesia.
- Severe Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea: Requiring immediate and potent relief.
- Specific Neurological Disorders: Where higher concentrations of cannabinoids are needed to modulate spasticity.
The Importance of Managed Dosage
“High potency” does not mean “recreational.” In a medical setting, higher THC percentage allows for a smaller quantity of flower to be consumed to achieve the effective therapeutic dose. This is crucial for minimizing respiratory irritation if inhaled, or managing precise intake in oral forms.
Conclusion
Accessing high-THC medical cannabis in Thailand must always be done through licensed clinics. 300 Genetics ensures that all high-potency cultivars supplied to medical partners are lab-tested for consistent levels, ensuring patient safety and reliable dosing.
