In Denmark, it is only legal to buy medical cannabis if a medical cannabis prescription has been issued by a doctor. With this prescription you can buy medical cannabis at the pharmacy. The pharmacy is the only place in Denmark where it is legal to sell medical cannabis.
Products purchased elsewhere, such as on the Internet or on the streets, are not legal in Denmark. They are not included in the Danish Medicines Agency’s list of cannabis products for medical use and are therefore not subject to the control of the Danish Medicines Agency.
On the website of the Danish Medicines Agency you can find an overview of legal medical cannabis products that are covered by the pilot programme, and which are therefore legally available for doctors’ prescriptions and dispensing by the pharmacies in Denmark.
