why is smokable marijuana prescribed?

With all the other ways of introducing marijuana into the body (edibles, supplements, etc.), why is smokable marijuana prescribed? It just seems to be not healthy to me as you’re inhaling smoke, which cause all kinds of other health issues. Is there some benefit that smoking it has vs ingesting it?

In NY where I live and have a med card we are actually not technicay allowed to smoke our medication. The dispensaries still sell flower, you’re just supposed to use a dry herb vape. No combustion=much healthier. As far as why, edibles are notoriously difficult to dose gradually because of how long they take to work. Tincture is faster, but for me sublingual administration doesn’t really work so tincture is just liquid edibles. Obviously everyone’s experience is different but that’s my 2 cents.
