The sourcing is not very clear and might not be 100% legal, but it comes from official persons, not dealers.
So yes, it is now already available if you really look for it.
Thailand has for the first time taken a smart decision unlike all retarded neighbors countries.
Yes, prescribed already and already got some.
Some also got it unofficially without prescription from someone working in hospital.
Thailand will soon the new California <3

What is the cost and how much info do they provide with the cannabis oil? What percentage of thc vs cbd is critical. For example: if one were to pay 3000b and receive a bottle with 1.7%thc they will be sorely dissapointed if they are seeking to recreate.BangkokStick wrote: ↑Tue Aug 06, 2019 12:34 amSonic1 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 19, 2019 5:29 pmDo you know of expats that have been legally prescribed cannabis oil?

Moving on with implementation, from today's Bangkok Post: Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul is set to enable hospitals to prescribe marijuana to patients in a move to make the alternative medicine more publicly available.
"This week I will sign an order to allow ministry-run hospitals to prescribe the [marijuana] oil extracts," Mr Anutin said as he unveiled his plans on public health care at the Bangkok Post Forum on Monday.
Mr Anutin also holds the position of deputy prime minister.
The minister vowed to push ahead with his cannabis policies and hospital service upgrade as he joined fellow ministers on stage to share their visions during the "Roadmap to Success: Up Close with Thailand's New Ministers" event.
It is now clear that cannabis has medical potential, Mr Anutin said, referring to an increasingly large body of research into medicinal use cases for the plant.
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are the active compounds that appear to offer therapeutic avenues.
THC is a muscle relaxant with anti-emetic properties, although in higher doses it can cause drowsiness and intoxication.
CBD has less psychoactive properties and can be used to treat epilepsy, among other conditions.
The green light for the medical use of cannabis in hospitals came after the Government Pharmaceutical Organisation (GPO) announced last Saturday it would hand 6,500 bottles of marijuana oil extract to the minister tomorrow.
The GPO-made oil will be eventually sent to the Department of Medical Services which will, in turn, distribute it to registered patients.
There are 4,500 bottles of THC-concentrated formula, 500 bottles of CBD-concentrated formula, and another 1,500 with a 1:1 ratio of CBD and THC.
Department chief Somsak Akkslip said earlier that patients in the final stage of cancer are expected to be among the first to receive the CBD-THC formula later this month as part of research being conducted by the National Cancer Institute.
On Monday, Mr Anutin also said his ministry is going ahead with plans to give faster services to patients at hospitals.
"One key public health care goal is to achieve the most convenience for patients," he told the forum.
His ministry is trying to relieve overcrowding in hospitals by adopting queue-management technology and upgrading public health stations, which serve as clinics, to small-scale tambon health promotion hospitals to give patients primary care.
"We are aiming to balance outpatient numbers," Mr Anutin said, adding more than 8,000 public health stations have already become tambon health promotion hospitals.
Mr Anutin also said ministry-owned hospitals will also introduce online appointments and a new system to allow patients to collect their prescriptions at pharmacies near their homes. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/ge ... scriptions

Thailand unveils it;s first legal Ganja or Cannabis laboratory to the media: "Even some of Thailand’s conservatives now talk excitedly of churning out “world-class cannabis” from its lush farmlands and stealing the lead before other Asian countries build their own markets. (Around the region, South Korea and the Philippines are taking baby steps toward loosening anti-pot laws while China has quietly permitted research into the drug.)
In Thailand, at this point, there is no marijuana industry. But a few months back, authorities quietly allowed scientists to put together the country’s first-ever cannabis laboratory — one of the few legal facilities of its kind in Asia.
That lab, at a school north of Bangkok called Rangsit University, is finally being unveiled. On a guided tour, The World was given access to more than a dozen pharmacists, medical researchers and agricultural specialists who are helping build this industry from scratch."

MedicaL news stating Cannabis kills Pancreatic cancer cells:
https://nowthisnews.com/videos/weed/har ... s-compound
Harvard Scientists Kill Cancer Cells with Cannabis Compound in New Lab Experiment
August 21, 2019
Scientists killed cancer cells in a lab using a compound found in cannabis.
Like most plants, cannabis contains chemical substances called flavonoids. Researchers from Harvard’s Dana-Farber Cancer Institute found that a specific cannabis flavonoid, FBL-03G, demonstrated “significant therapy potential” in treating pancreatic cancer.
In a lab experiment, researchers found FBL-03G was effective at killing both local and metastatic pancreatic cancer cells. The findings were published in the journal Frontiers on Oncology in July 2019.
“The most significant conclusion is that tumor-targeted delivery of flavonoids, derived from cannabis, enabled both local and metastatic tumor cell kill, significant increasing survival from pancreatic cancer,” Assistant Professor Wilfred Ngwa, PhD told Yahoo Lifestyle. “This has major significance, given that pancreatic cancer is particularly refractory to current therapies.”
Pancreatic cancer makes up approximately 3% of all cancer diagnosed in the U.S. It has a five-year survival rate of 9% and is predicted to be the third-leading cause of cancer-related death by 2020.

a couple things relative to vaping cannabis oil given how much oil is now circulating in LOS. Vitamin E has been identified as the main culprit in lung related illness. From Leafly news: “Just the lack of toxicity data for inhaled Vitamin E acetate should raise red flags,” said Duke University School of Medicine Dr. Sven-Eric Jordt—expert on dangerous chemicals in vaping aerosol.
“It’s in every store in downtown LA.”
Alex Dixon, Floraplex CEO
“Lipids [i.e. oils] in the lung are highly toxic and have been associated with lung injury for years,” retired California pulmonologist Dr. Howard Mintz told Leafly. “They are most commonly seen in persons using ointments in their noses,” which can lead to a condition known as lipoid pneumonia.
All tocopherols may uniquely disrupt the function of the fluid lining the surface of the lungs.
“No vitamin E should be vaped regardless of its chemical structure,” said Eliana Golberstein Rubashkyn, a New Zealand–based pharmaceutical chemist and the chief scientist of Myriad Pharmaceuticals.
Drug-involved vitamin E oil inhalation injuries have been documented dating back at least to the year 2000. https://www.leafly.com/news/health/vape ... -explained Also from Leafly news: Journey of a tainted vape cart: From China's labs to your lungs. n addition to the low quality hardware, LA’s Toy District vape wholesalers sell the dangerous additives not approved for human inhalation— including dubiously sourced terpene flavorings and hazardous diluent thickeners like vitamin E oil. You can also purchase more traditional diluents like propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and vegetable glycerin.
(Vitamin E acetate is still available for purchase in LA, despite health warnings.)
These chemicals also get made in China. Many come in packaging labeled as “FDA-approved” and “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS). But a previous Leafly investigation found that those designations, with regard to vitamin E oil, apply only in cases of oral ingestion (eating) or application to the skin, not for vaporization and inhalation. They comprise a tame part of the global cosmetics and supplements industries. Street markets divert the drums, pails, and gallon jugs of these chemicals into the vape channel.
Among all the additives, there’s one that makes every vendor in the Toy District tense up and start shaking their head: “Honey Cut.” https://www.leafly.com/news/politics/va ... ion-leafly

Back to growing. Amazing results from some alfalfa farmers in Colorado using a hybrid LED/greenhouse.

I don't think weed should be legalized and it is a myth that it is a harmless 'herb'.
