Canntab was created, in part, to offer pharmaceutical-grade medical cannabis as an option for highly prescribed medications, and even illegally supplied drugs that have created an overdose crisis in Canada and elsewhere. This is a troubling, even growing public health issue that has greatly increased opioid-related overdoses due to:
- High rates of opioid prescribing
- The emergence of strong synthetic opioids in the illegal drug supply – such as fentanyl and carfentanil
