🧬 The Rise of Minor Cannabinoids
Beyond THC and CBD, researchers are studying how cannabinoids like CBN, THCV, CBG and CBDV may offer targeted therapeutic benefits, opening the door to condition-specific formulations.

Early studies suggest these compounds interact with the body in distinct ways, influencing inflammatory pathways, neurological signalling, and overall endocannabinoid balance.

While clinical evidence is still emerging, interest is growing in how minor cannabinoids may support more targeted, condition-specific formulations, reinforcing the shift toward personalised, evidence-led medical cannabis care.

Can’t sleep. Take pills. Pills stop working. Switch pills. Repeat.

For many people with chronic insomnia, this isn’t a short-term issue. It’s a decade-long loop.

Warning labels matter. But so do real alternatives, access to care and individualised treatment.

For some patients, clinician-prescribed medical cannabis has become part of that wider conversation.

Sleep needs long-term solutions, not short-term fixes.

On Purple Day, a global day of awareness for epilepsy, we recognise the challenges faced by those living with the condition and stand with the community.

In 2018, parents Hannah Deacon and Charlotte Caldwell led a campaign to legalise medical cannabis after their sons, Billy Caldwell and Alfie Dingley, experienced severe epilepsy.

Their efforts led to a change in UK law and made Billy and Alfie some of the first patients to receive medical cannabis prescriptions on the NHS.

Eight years on, progress remains slow, but with Tonia Antoniazzi now campaigning for the UK Government to fund an Observational Trial that could provide children and young adults with life-changing medication at no cost, there is hope for meaningful change.

Protect yourself with a medical prescription

If you're already using cannabis to help manage your symptoms, a medical prescription makes it legal.

A medical prescription also means regulated products, clinical oversight, and treatment tailored to your needs.

Experiencing medication fatigue? Taking sleeping pills or anti-anxiety medication?

What was once prescribed for short-term relief, some people now find themselves dependent on.

When warning signs of dependence arrive without alternatives, patients are left stuck between exhaustion and medication.

Sleep is now being approached differently, with some asking whether medical cannabis can play a role alongside clinical support.

Cannabis has long been stigmatised, with even minimal use often associated with cognitive decline, memory loss, and the stereotypical “stoner” persona.

However, a recent study by researchers at Oxford Population Health and the University of Oxford conducted both observational and genetic analyses and found no evidence that cannabis use contributes to cognitive decline in later life or increases the risk of dementia.

The study aimed to investigate the relationship between cannabis use, cognitive performance, and dementia risk in older adults, and is the first large population cohort study of its kind.

While the researchers emphasise the need for further studies with more detailed exposure assessments and longer follow-up periods, the findings offer valuable insight into the potential impact of cannabis use in ageing populations.
