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
Whether a cannabis therapy is suitable for your medical needs must first be assessed by a doctor. For this, you need to make an appointment with a medical practice or virtually through the telemedicine offer.

➁
Together you and your doctor will find the suitable product
If the doctor considers you and your indication for a medical cannabis therapy suitable, you will discuss with your doctor which cannabis product is the most appropriate for your medical needs. In general, cannabis has an individual effect on every person, so it may take some time to find the strain that works for you. We recommend that you maintain close communication with your doctor's office or pharmacy during this phase.
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.
