Cannabis card

Jenny Butterfly

Not legalisation but for anyone interested in or using cannabis medicinally, a card is being introduced from 1st November and autism is listed as one of the conditions.

  • Where are these new conditions listed? I suffer from autism, and a doctor told me that treatment with cannabis-based drugs would be beneficial, only that until now, they were banned. For me, legalizing cannabis for those who have a special card is excellent news. Until now, I was still trying products from topgrows.com, and I was afraid that they would not be allowed in the future. But with this card, I am sure that my health will improve.

    If you search for cannabis clinics (such as Sapphire), Project 21, Cancard or MedCannID you'll find a list of conditions.  Happily autism and anxiety are listed.  

    The issue is that only 3 prescriptions have so far been done on the NHS (I think for children with epilepsy) and private treatment might be prohibitively expensive for many.  I'm hoping this situation is poised for change.
