CBD patches

Hi. I suffer from fibramialgia/ M.S. and COPD, and live in Scotland. Can I get cbd patches prescribed from my doctor for my pain? I can't take painkillers/ anti inflamitory or amatryptaline. KINDEST REGUARDS LISA

unfortunately cbd is not available on the NHS in any area of the UK (which is a shame ... as I would be first in the queue asking for them if they were)

you may benefit from being referred to a pain clinic - as they may be able to offer you non-medication pain management options xxx

Thanks Hazel. I will try that. 😊

There aren't cbd patches as far as I know. CBD products are not sadly on the NHS at present and no sign of them going to be so. CBD is legal but classed as a supplement and therefore not prescribed.

I have chronic arthritis in my spine and both legs also one hip I cannot go out without using a wheelchair a take a lot of medication every day which do not take all the pain away

I saw an advert in the newspaper for Hemp Patch Pain Reliever Patches they are expensive 19.99 for 20 and I was very dubious about trying them but I must say I have used them for six days now and I can feel a difference but sadly they are not available from doctors
