Cannabis is
not a narcotic
Since April 2024, the new cannabis law (CanG) has come into effect, meaning cannabis is no longer classified as a narcotic. As a result, individuals can now obtain medical cannabis through a "normal" standard prescription, provided they have the appropriate medical indications.
➀
You seek medical guidance
A doctor must first evaluate whether cannabis therapy is appropriate for your medical needs. You can schedule an appointment either in-person at a doctor's office or virtually through telemedicine services. If the therapy is not recommended, you have the option to seek a second opinion from other doctors.
Here are the quickest ways to find the right doctors for you:

You look for the right product
If you are considering a prescription, it's important to consult with your doctor's office or pharmacy to determine which cannabis product is right for you. Keep in mind that cannabis affects individuals differently, so finding the right strain may take time. We recommend staying in close communication with your healthcare provider or pharmacy throughout this process.
➂
You receive the prescription and redeem it
The prescription will either be provided to you at the doctor's office or mailed to you if you use telemedicine. You can fill it at a local pharmacy or through a mail-order pharmacy. A helpful tip: Some pharmacies specialize in cannabis and are well-versed in its unique requirements.
➃
You can get a follow-up prescription
If you wish to continue your cannabis therapy, you can request a follow-up prescription. You have the freedom to choose any doctor for this, as you are not restricted to the practice where you had your initial consultation.
