At Curaleaf, we focus on your relationship with cannabis. We value your history with it—or lack thereof—and your feelings towards this ancient plant that’s brought us together.
The difference simply lies in its intended use. Medical cannabis is used by people with a qualifying medical condition who have registered under a state's medical cannabis program. Patients must carry a practitioner or state issued medical cannabis card in order to purchase and consume cannabis for medical reasons. The cannabis itself is no different from that which can be purchased for adult-use—that's the preferred term for "recreational use."
CBD is a non-psychoactive compound found in cannabis. It's one of many cannabinoids, the plant's active ingredients. CBD products contain only CBD, often derived from hemp. Unlike THC, CBD won't get you high. While most people associate "cannabis" with THC, the plant also produces CBD and other cannabinoids.
Cannabis comes in countless forms, from natural flower to manufactured concentrates. While exciting, this variety can be overwhelming. Remember, cannabis isn't one-size-fits-all. We'll guide you to find the right product and dosage for your needs, starting low and going slow. Our experts are here to help you find your perfect match.
