A new platform hopes to streamline UK medical cannabis prescribing by bringing together all available products in one place.\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\r\n

UK-based start-up, Medisonal, has partnered with \u2018specials\u2019 manufacturer, PCCA, to create a new platform for doctors and patients in the medical cannabis space.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

In what is thought to be the first independent\u00a0UK platform for cannabis medicines,<\/span> it aims to streamline the prescribing process to improve patient services and access to medical cannabis across\u00a0the\u00a0UK.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Medisonal<\/a> seeks to work\u00a0with existing players in\u00a0the\u00a0UK market, in\u00a0order to\u00a0ensure the\u00a0best cannabis-based medicinal products\u00a0are available to\u00a0patients\u00a0at reasonable prices and with an uninterrupted continuity of supply.\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\r\n

Its <\/span>goal is to help the doctors and patients orient themselves\u00a0across\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0market without being tied to any licensed producer, allowing them to access all\u00a0of the medical cannabis products, which are\u00a0legally sold in the\u00a0UK, in one place.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Medisonal also provides free\u00a0education to UK doctors\u00a0through CPD modules, and\u00a0its platform consists of expert scientists, technologists,\u00a0pharmacists\u00a0and business developers\u00a0to\u00a0improve the amount of quality\u00a0information available\u00a0for hospitals, patients and regulators, with the overall aim of creating greater transparency throughout the market.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\r\n
