    The Danish Medicines Agency licenses cultivation, bulk, extracts and exports under continuous EU-GMP inspection, with different permits for primary versus intermediate products. The 2018 pilot is being made permanent.

    Patient access

    All doctors can prescribe under the pilot, for indications including MS and spinal spasms, chemotherapy nausea and neuropathic pain.

    Terminally ill patients are fully reimbursed; other patients receive partial reimbursement up to an annual cap, paying the remainder themselves.
