Starseed Medicinal Product Guide
The Starseed System
We designed the Starseed System™ as a visual guide to help patients adhere to their prescribed medical cannabis plan with ease. Any Starseed product labeled with a Star-1 is CBD dominant, Star-2 is balanced, and Star-3 is THC dominant.
The Starseed System can be applied to all formats and products. Starseed Medicinal offers CBD, balanced and THC products in every format to meet the desires of every type of patient.
CBD is the non-intoxicating cannabinoid and has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties. When CBD is administered with THC, it can reduce the negative THC effects.
Balanced products contain varying levels of both CBD and THC. These products can allow patients to experience the effects of both cannabinoids and lessen unwanted side effects.
THC is the intoxicating cannabinoid that is often associated with the feeling of being "high". In some patients, THC has been known to contribute to reducing neuropathic pain.
Medical Cannabis Formats
Dried Flower
Dried flower products are available in CBD-dominant, balanced, THC-dominant, and high-THC cultivars, with variations in indica and sativa. Our cultivation practices include innovative technologies, advanced research, and rigorous quality testing to bring a variety of premium cultivars to patients.
Clinical Considerations: When heated using a vaporization device, dried flower is converted to vapor for inhalation. Health care professionals always recommend using a dry herb vaporizer with dried flower to avoid toxins associated with burning.
Usual Onset: 3 - 10 minutes
Usual Duration: 2 - 4 hours

Clinical Considerations: Precise, accurate and consistent dosing with longer lasting effects.
Usual Onset: 60 - 90 minutes
Usual Duration: 8 - 12 hours

Topical Compounds
Mary's Medicinals Topical Compound is a spot-specific balm produced using full-spectrum cannabis extract containing naturally occurring CBD and THC, mango butter and a blend of essential oils. They contain cannabinoids derived from cannabis plants and are meant to be applied to your skin.
Clinical Considerations: Compounds are ideal for localised symptoms. Apply a finger-tip of balm topically to the target area and avoid broken skin or sensitive wounds.

Transdermal Patches
Transdermal delivery of cannabinoids is becoming an acceptable option of administration for patients. Use of transdermal patches may bypass 'first-pass metabolism' in the liver, which may result in higher bioavailability of cannabinoids and fewer side effects.
Clinical Considerations: Patches should be placed on the inside of wrist, behind the knee or top of the foot. The 2x2" (inch) square patch can be cut into multiple smaller pieces for a customized dose or micro-dosing.

Vapes
Our vape selection includes two main categories: PAX ERA and Aurum. Both options offer their own set of features and a lineup of compatible concentrates based on our renowned dried flower cultivars. PAX ERA vapes are highly customizable for a tailored experience, and Aurum vapes offer ultimate simplicity.
Clinical Considerations: Pure extract is converted to vapor when heated for inhalation. They include higher concentrations than dried cannabis, and may provide symptom relief at lower volumes than lower concentrated products.
Usual Onset: 3 - 10 minutes
Usual Duration: 2 - 4 hours
