Medical cannabis has been legalized in Ukraine . Here are the main changes.
🔴 Cannabis can be used for medical purposes.
🔴 Medicines based on it will be sold by prescription in licensed pharmacies.
🔴 Every transaction with medical cannabis will be registered in an electronic system.
🔴 The National Police will strictly control the cultivation of this plant, the production and sale of medicines based on it.
Medical cannabis differs from ordinary cannabis by its lower content of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a substance that causes a feeling of euphoria, changes consciousness and behavior. Instead, it is rich in cannabidiol, which relieves pain, relaxes, improves sleep and appetite.
The Ministry of Health writes that cannabis is effective for the treatment of chronic pain, arthritis, rheumatism, epilepsy, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, etc.
@ukrainejournal
@TheOldGuy I'm guessing it will mainly
- help the soldiers (with the pain, relax them, improve sleep and appetite.factor)
and then
- help the country profit from internal sales and external sales to help money go to the war, especially as export!
I could be wrong about suddenly authority turning to weed for all the "benefits"/profit for "it's people" - but I'm sure there are a few that need somewhere from population of civilians who might need such a thing. #Ukraine #War #Medical #Cannabis
