Short answer: Levin Health is an Australian medical cannabis company with a sports focus, and its products are prescription-only — made under the Levin brand and supplied through the TGA's Special Access Scheme, so a doctor has to prescribe them. It is not a shop, and the public cannot buy it directly. If you are in Geelong and you just want over-the-counter CBD oil you can order yourself, with no consultation and no script, that is a different thing — a shop like CBD Oil Geelong, an online CBD oil shop delivering across Newtown, Belmont, Corio, Torquay and the rest of VIC.
This review is independent. CBD Oil Geelong is a separate Geelong shop selling its own over-the-counter CBD oil — it is not Levin Health, is not affiliated with it, and is not a medical-cannabis company or prescriber. Levin Health's own products and information are on its official site.
The quick questions, answered first
The practical things people ask before reading any further:
- Can I buy Levin Health directly? No — it is prescription-only, accessed through a doctor under the TGA Special Access Scheme.
- Is it a shop? No — it is a medicinal-cannabis producer and research company.
- Do I need a prescription for over-the-counter CBD oil? No — a hemp-derived CBD oil from a shop like CBD Oil Geelong is bought directly.
- What does the over-the-counter route cost? Our oils start from $89.95, with every price shown on the shop page.
The rest of this page expands each of those with verifiable facts only, and keeps the two routes clearly apart.
What Levin Health is
In practical terms, Levin Health is an Australian company that researches and manufactures medicinal cannabis, and it has a strong sports profile — a Sports Advisory Board of recognisable Australian athletes and coaches, plus clinical research into chronic musculoskeletal pain. Its products carry the Levin brand and are made in Australia, in GMP-certified facilities, with Australian-grown cannabis.
The access point is the detail that counts. The Levin range is supplied under the Therapeutic Goods Administration's Special Access Scheme, so a registered doctor or nurse practitioner has to apply and prescribe it. There is no public checkout and no walk-up purchase — it is a producer and a prescription pathway, not a storefront.
Prescription medical cannabis vs over-the-counter CBD oil
Worth being plain about, because the two get mixed up. Prescription medical cannabis — what Levin Health produces — sits under the TGA's Special Access Scheme. A doctor assesses whether it is appropriate, and the product and dose form part of a medical plan; that route can include THC and is managed with oversight.
Over-the-counter CBD oil is a different category. In 2021 the TGA down-scheduled low-dose cannabidiol to a pharmacist-only medicine, and hemp-derived CBD oil is also sold online as a product you buy directly — described by spectrum, milligrams and carrier oil, with no consultation. The two are not substitutes for one another; they are separate routes with separate rules, and the current framework is set out on the TGA website. We do not position our shop as a stand-in for medical advice or a prescription — a doctor is the route for that. We simply sell over-the-counter CBD oil to people in Geelong who want that product.

Buying over-the-counter CBD oil in Geelong
CBD Oil Geelong is an online CBD oil shop set up for Geelong — no clinic, no consultation, no script. Every oil is described by what is in it, never by what it might do, and we post across Newtown, Belmont, Corio, Torquay and the rest of VIC in plain Australian dollars. For the whole-plant profile, the full-spectrum CBD oil keeps the legal trace of THC (under 0.3%); to skip THC entirely, the broad-spectrum CBD oil has it removed.
There are two single-cannabinoid oils as well — a CBG oil, which is cannabigerol, and a THC-free CBN oil, a cannabinol isolate — plus a pet CBD oil formulated for animals. Each is hemp extract in a coconut-derived MCT carrier, a 50ml bottle, third-party lab-tested by batch with a Certificate of Analysis on request, and priced from $89.95. They are imported from EU Labs in Amsterdam and dispatched within Australia; the whole range and prices for Geelong are in one place.
What to weigh before you compare
A medicinal-cannabis producer and an over-the-counter shop answer different questions, so the comparison is really about which route you need:
- Prescription route (Levin Health) — you want a doctor to assess you and, if appropriate, prescribe; that can include THC products and ongoing medical oversight, supplied under the TGA Special Access Scheme.
- OTC route (CBD Oil Geelong) — you want to buy hemp-derived CBD oil directly, chosen by spectrum, milligrams and carrier oil, without a consultation. It starts and ends with the product.
Neither replaces the other. If a medical assessment is what you want, the prescription route is the right one. If it is the over-the-counter product, the guide to reading a CBD oil label covers spectrum, strength and carrier so you can compare bottles on the practical detail.
