The Thalpathe Piliyam (තල්පත් පිළියම්, "Palm-leaf Remedies") is a twenty-one-volume compilation of traditional medical formulae published by the Department of Ayurveda of the Government of Sri Lanka, beginning in 1992. The series transcribes and organises drug formulations recorded on ola leaf (palm-leaf) manuscripts donated by families of traditional medicine practitioners. Twenty volumes are in Sinhala; the twenty-first is in Tamil. The first volume was published with financial and technical support from the World Health Organization.
The series is the largest published collection of Sri Lankan indigenous medical formulae{{cn|reason=was cited to an unwritten 2026 field report; needs a published source}} and contains at least 267 formulations that include Cannabis sativa as a measured ingredient, with a further 13 using it as a grinding medium.

Cannabis is used at low concentrations: 63% of formulations contain 5% or less by ingredient weight. read more →
