Cannabis Gummies

Cannabis gummies are edible, chewable products infused with cannabinoids such as THC or CBD.

In the UK, THC-containing gummies require a specialist prescription. For a comprehensive guide to medical cannabis edibles and gummies, see: THC Edibles and THC Gummies: What Patients Need to Know.

Key Takeaways

  • Cannabis gummies are edible, chewable products infused with cannabinoids (THC, CBD, or both)

  • THC-containing gummies are prescription-only in the UK; CBD gummies (under 1mg THC) are available legally

  • Gummies have a slower onset (30 min – 2 hours) but longer-lasting effects (4–8 hours) compared to inhaled or sublingual products

  • Medical cannabis gummies offer precise, lab-tested dosing — unlike unregulated products

What Are Cannabis Gummies?

Cannabis gummies are soft, chewable edible products infused with cannabis extract. They provide a discreet, smoke-free way to administer medical cannabis, and are available in a range of cannabinoid profiles and strengths. As with all oral cannabis products, gummies are processed through the digestive system, producing a slower onset but longer duration of effects.

Are Cannabis Gummies Legal in the UK?

CBD gummies containing less than 1mg of THC are legal to purchase over the counter. THC-containing gummies are controlled substances and can only be obtained with a specialist prescription. Check your eligibility with our medical cannabis eligibility checker.
