...whereby "seizure frequency across all 10 participants was reduced by 86% with no significant adverse events. Participants reduced use of antiepileptic drugs from an average of seven to one following treatment with medical cannabis."

[Cannabis Patient Advocacy & Support Services @CannPass]

"The result is that the UK currently finds itself in a critical situation in which the only remaining pediatric cannabis prescriber is no longer taking new patients" leaving parents "to seek cannabis from illicit sources" @CharlieH_hope.

#MCAW An initiative launched and coordinated by our friends, @plea_community. It’s been three years since it has been legally possible to prescribe cannabis as a medicine. The information isn’t widespread enough and there is still so much stigma and shame surrounding the subject.

[PLEA - Patient Led Engagement for Access @PLEA_community]

Today marks the start of Medical Cannabis Awareness Week 2021 🌱

With just 3 NHS prescriptions having been issued 3 years on from the law change allowing doctors to prescribe medical cannabis, #MCAW2021 aims to highlight the real need for real-world evidence in evolving access.

[CannabisHealth @CannabisHnews]

Medical Cannabis Awareness Week will return, from 1-7 November, to mark three years since the law changed.

We're delighted to be providing coverage throughout the week, stay tuned for more info on events in the coming days.
