Founders Rebecca Thomson and Olivia Penner have backgrounds in Pharmacy and Registered Nursing, ensuring their products are formulated with strong principles of pharmacokinetics and physiology in mind. They recognized that suppositories are an overlooked delivery mechanism for providing effective, targeted pain relief.

“We believe that all cannabis has therapeutic benefits, whether you are accessing it through medical or recreational channels. Through our own experiences as medical cannabis patients, we found it necessary to create new ways for people to take control of their health and manage their overall wellness.” – Rebecca Thomson

Irritable bowel syndrome (“IBS”) and other common digestive issues are on the rise in all genders, and many individuals are in search of holistic options for relief. Cannabis suppositories are intended to support both female and male wellness functions, providing targeted relief from soreness, menstrual pain, and intercourse-related discomforts.

“We are passionate about engaging women in this conversation in order to foster a future of better questions, better answers, and ultimately better access to cannabis care.” – Olivia Penner

Cannabinoids administered vaginally or rectally bypass the digestive tract and first-pass metabolism in the liver, and are delivered directly to the bloodstream. This can help facilitate a higher absorption rate of cannabinoids in the body. The suppositories have been specifically formulated to provide localized relief, with targeted dosing directly to the pelvis and surrounding region.

Prairie Grass Inc. products are batch tested and safety-tested formulations. For detailed medical information, Prairie Grass Inc. encourages you to seek professional medical advice through your family doctor. Feel free to refer to www.prairiegrass.com for more information.
