The sale of cannabis products in Costa Rican pharmacies is set to launch in January 2025, ushering in a new era of accessibility to medicinal cannabis for the general public.
Green Mountain Medical, a Costa Rican pharmaceutical company, will supply pharmacies with various cannabis products, including pure flower, waxes, gummies, extracts, cookies and oils. CEO Thomas McCullen told Teletica, “The range of products that will be available is quite broad.” This initiative is designed to provide natural, less invasive treatment options, especially for those with chronic conditions or pain management needs.
The rollout of these products also signifies a shift in how Costa Rica’s healthcare system approaches cannabis-based treatments.
