In December 2020 the TGA ruled that low-dose (<150mg) CBD could be registered as a schedule 3 ‘pharmacist only’ medication.
However, the TGA quite rightly stressed that all applications would require high-quality dose-, product- and indication-specific clinical evidence for registration.
The second problem: Making a reliable low-dose cannabinoid palatable
Our experience highlighted a second issue. Even with sufficient evidence to gain regulatory approval for a low-dose cannabinoid treatment for mental health issues, many of the CBD products are poorly absorbed by the body and patients were frustrated with traditional oils and droppers.
Patients really want a more reliable, convenient, palatable dose form.” font_size=”lg:16″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”The solution.” tab_id=”the-solution”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][tm_heading tag=”p” custom_google_font=”” text_color=”secondary” el_class=”text-large” text=”With our CBD experience and a significant patient cohort experiencing mental health issues, we saw a unique opportunity to register our own low-dose cannabinoid medicine to improve the symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression.
