How Many Tons of Medical Cannabis Poles Bought in 2023
Record purchases of medical cannabis in Poland in 2023 are an important signal for patients, doctors and politicians. Market development and increased interest in pharmaceutical raw materials open up new therapeutic possibilities, while at the same time prompting reflection on the future of medicine and its directions of development.
In 2023, Poles showed that their interest in medical cannabis has significantly increased, reaching new records. Rafał Mundry, using data from the Ministry of Health, revealed that last year an impressive 4,658 kilograms of this pharmaceutical raw material was purchased in Poland. This is a number that not only attracts attention, but also makes us reflect on society’s changing attitude to medical cannabis.
Let’s analyze historical data to better understand this trend. Since 2019, we have observed a dynamic increase – from 33 kilograms in the first year, through 94 kilograms in 2020, to over 4,600 kilograms in 2023. The number of prescriptions filled also increased significantly, reaching almost 277,000 last year. This indicates growing confidence in the medical uses of cannabis and easier access to it for patients.

The Ministry of Health, together with the e-Health Center, has introduced a new analytical model that allows for more precise calculations. This is important because the quality and accuracy of data are crucial to understanding social trends and needs. However, it is worth remembering challenges such as differences in the quality of data provided by pharmacies, which may affect the overall interpretation of results.
Collecting medical cannabis data has its challenges, including differences in the quality of data provided by individual dispensaries. Not all information is verified by the National Health Fund, which may affect the overall analysis and interpretation of available data.
Conclusions and future prospects on the medical cannabis imports in Poland

With the growing popularity of this raw material, it becomes important to conduct further research that may contribute to a better understanding of its properties and potential applications.
