How to get a cannabis prescription? Charlie Harper case (“Two and a half men”). Do not try this at your local Pharmacy.
Who can prescribe medical cannabis in the UK?
By law, medical marijuana cannot be prescribed by a General Practitioner (GP). Prescriptions must only be issued by consultants listed on the Specialist Register of the General Medical Council specializing in the health condition for which you would like to receive CBPMs. A GP may refer you to a consultant.
By law, doctors can only prescribe a 30-day supply of medical marijuana which can technically be provided by any pharmacy. A prescription will state the type of marijuana medicine (oil, flower, capsules), how much THC or CBD is contained, the dose, and how often it should be taken.
Any CBPM supplied to patients in the UK must be approved and licensed by the Medical Healthcare Agency (MHRA) and Home Office, meeting strict criteria such as Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).
