Medical Cannabis in Hannover

Medical cannabis has been prescribable in Germany since 2017. Doctors may issue a cannabis prescription. The basis is the Narcotics Act, which sets clear guidelines for application, production, documentation, and dispensing via a specialized cannabis pharmacy.

In Hannover, patients can receive various cannabis products, including flowers, extracts, or standardized solutions. Great emphasis is placed on quality, safe production, and the therapeutically meaningful combination of THC and CBD. Dosage and course are determined solely by the physician.

What the medical assessment takes into account

Whether treatment is an option in an individual case is assessed solely by a physician. The assessment takes into account, among other things:

• Previous therapies and their course.
• Accompanying conditions and possible interactions.
• The individual medical assessment of how to proceed.
• Begleiterkrankungen und mögliche Wechselwirkungen.
• Mögliche Kontraindikationen.
• Die individuelle ärztliche Einschätzung des weiteren Vorgehens.

The main components of the plant, THC and CBD, interact with the body's own endocannabinoid system. THC binds primarily to CB1 receptors, CBD modulates 5-HT1A receptors among others. Statements about the effect in an individual case are made solely by the treating physician.
