  • As of 2018, Medical cannabis is an unlicensed medicine in the UK.  What this means is that it is not considered a first-line therapy and does not have a licence for any single indication or disease.  It is used for treatment resistant conditions where no licensed medicine available adequately treats their condition.
  • The Physician, the Clinic staff will NOT be provide information regarding any other way of obtaining cannabis other than an approved medical pharmacy 
  • The Physicians will evaluate you for the use of medical cannabis and make recommendation partly on the medical information you have provided. It is your responsibility to ensure that there is no misrepresentation of your medical information.
  • You agree to only use medical cannabis for the treatment of your medical condition as agreed by the Physician and not for recreational or non-medical purposes 
  • Using cannabis is prohibited while driving or performing hazardous tasks such as operating heavy machinery, in safety-sensitive occupations such as health professionals and the supervision of children. Depending on THC dosage and administration, impairment may last over 24 hours following last usage.
  • Compared with recreational use, the incidence of significant side effects from the supervised use of medical cannabis when used as prescribed are low and it is generally well tolerated by most patients.  However, the potential side effects from the use of medical cannabis, usually at higher doses of THC may include, but are not limited to the following; dizziness, anxiety, confusion, sedation, low blood pressure, impairment of short term memory, euphoria, difficulty in completing complex tasks, suppression of the body’s immune system, inability to concentrate, impaired motor skills, paranoia, apathy, depression and/or restlessness.

  • You understand that using cannabis while under the influence of alcohol is not recommended and may lead to Additional side effects. 
  • Smoking cannabis may cause respiratory problems and harm, including; bronchitis, emphysema and laryngitis and may increase the risk of respiratory disease and cancer. This method is not endorsed or considered an appropriate use of your medical cannabis. 
  • There are some medications which may be at higher risk of having a significant drug interaction with medical cannabis. If you are taking medication or undergoing treatment for any medical condition, you understand you should consult with your GP and/or treating specialist  and inform them that you are also taking medical cannabis.  If you have started a new medication since your last visit to the Clinic, you should inform the clinic so that this can be updated in your medical history so our doctors are aware.
  • Individuals may develop a tolerance to medical cannabis containing THC. If you develop signs of withdrawal which can include; feelings of depression, irritability, insomnia, restlessness, loss of appetite, trouble concentration, sleep disturbance and unusual tiredness, contact the Clinic or your GP.
  • Cannabis overdose is rare and non-fatal.  However, if you are concerned that you may have taken an overdose of your medical cannabis and are experiencing symptoms such as disturbance in heart rhythm, numbness in hands, feet, arms or legs, anxiety attacks and incapacitation, call 999.
  • Medical Cannabis products are used as an adjunct to standard of care treatment where deemed appropriate to help with your symptoms/condition and the Clinic and its  Physicians do not advocate cannabis as a cure for any diseases.

I understand that the information I have been asked to provide is for the diagnosis and treatment of the medical condition for which I want to access that if I have not accurately and completely disclosed the requested information, it may adversely impact the physicians ability to diagnosis my condition and recommend appropriate medical cannabis treatment.
