FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Short answers about online review, PT33 documents, and licensed dispensary use in Thailand.
How is anxiety reviewed for medical cannabis?
The clinician reviews worry patterns, panic symptoms, triggers, sleep, current therapy, and medicines before deciding whether a PT33 path is appropriate.
Can THC make anxiety or panic worse?
It can for some people, especially with high-THC products or a history of panic, bipolar disorder, psychosis, or severe anxiety. Disclose this before use.
Should I mention antidepressants or benzodiazepines?
Yes. SSRIs, SNRIs, benzodiazepines, sleep aids, alcohol use, and other sedating medicines should be reviewed for interaction and impairment risk.
Will the doctor recommend CBD instead of THC?
Product choice depends on clinical review. The page cannot recommend a cannabinoid profile, but your clinician can discuss lower-risk options if appropriate.
When should anxiety symptoms be handled outside this pathway?
Suicidal thoughts, psychosis, mania, severe panic, or inability to function need urgent mental health support before considering cannabis.
