Yes, by prescription. In the United Kingdom, medical cannabis is legal, but it is still a controlled substance and is only available on prescription. In order to prescribe medical cannabis, a doctor must be registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) and must follow the guidelines set out by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
Begin by scheduling an appointment. You’ll need to complete a short eligibility questionnaire as well as authorise our access to your NHS Summary Care record.
Together with you, your doctor will review your medical history and assess your suitability for treatment. Afterwards, your case will be submitted to a specialised medical team for further review and assessment. If approved, we will issue your prescription for your approval. The entire process normally takes between 2-5 days.
Once we receive your approval and payment, your prescription will be sent to your nominated pharmacy for dispatch.
To assess your suitability for treatment, our doctors will need access to your NHS Summary Care Record. Normally, private clinics will ask you to procure this from your GP.
However, our doctors have access to this information directly, and can access an electronic summary without needing to request it specifically from your GP.
The NHS Summary Care Record is a copy of key information which provides our doctors with faster, secure access to essential information about you if required. Please be aware, we will never seek your information without your explicit consent. As part of the registration process, you will be asked to authorise us to access your NHS Summary Care Record.
Yes. You may request a renewed prescription by signing in to your account and clicking on reorder prescription. In most cases, you will not need to book a new appointment, but you will need to follow up with your doctor at least once every six months.
