How do I obtain Medical Cannabis?

Cannabis-based medicine cannot be recommended by a GP in the UK; it must be prescribed by a clinician recognised on the General Medical Council's Specialist Register.

A prescription for medical cannabis would be issued only if it was determined to be in your best interests and when other treatments had failed to work or were deemed ineffective.

How can I locate a physician who is able to prescribe Medical Cannabis?

In the United Kingdom, medical cannabis can only be prescribed by a practitioner recognised on the General Medical Council's Specialist Register.

Specialist practitioners who wish to prescribe and treat patients with cannabis-based medical products must ensure that they have safeguards designed to guarantee that they provide safe and effective care in accordance with applicable legislation and regulation.

You can either seek referral from your primary care physician or visit a clinic that specialises in medical cannabis treatment.
