I have a prescription vape. Five pharmacies in my area don’t stock the device or juice. The one that had it charged me for 7 boxes of juice even though they only had 5 boxes because “we’re only allowed to sell 7 at a time”. Went to refill my prescription and they don’t have the juice and refused to order it. They told me to go to another store over an hour away.
Noone wants smokers to quit, the government wants the taxes from cigarettes, the quit foundation openly tell you they don’t want to stop smoking (that would put them out of a job) and the pharmacies make more from all their nicotine replacement therapies than a vape setup that lasts 8 months. The black market is fantastic though. Cheap smokes sold at all convenience stores, milk bars, gift shops and independant supermarkets. They don’t ask for id either. My go to shop is opposite a police station.
I could definitely see that happening somewhere where presrcibing marijuana medically is a thing. Edibles aren’t for everyone, and the doctor doesn’t want their patients to inhale smoke. So, they might go the vape route. I imagine it to be similar to how some people have to drink their medicine because they can’t swallow pills. That might also just be the preferred method. Not everyone likes the smell of burning weed, for example. It could also be the flavour, the feeling when inhaling, or something else entirely.

It’s possible in the UK or Europe broadly I think.
