COBB COUNTY, Ga. — Trulieve, a medical marijuana distribution company with Georgia locations, announced that a cannabis-based nasal spray would be available at their stores starting Wednesday.

Due to its fast-acting effects, Momenta is described by Trulieve as something the body quickly absorbs, “making it a practical vaporizer alternative.”

As listed by the company, the nasal spray’s main benefits are:

• Fast-acting effects
• Typically used when anticipating the onset of a seizure
• Increased bioavailability by reducing first-pass metabolism
• Used intranasally
• Practical alternative to vaporizers
