Sativa

Hi I was wondering if I can get access to the medication that I think is called sativa. It is medicinal cannabis in a spray form. It is not available here in Ireland but was wondering if it is available in UK? If so how much would it cost? Could anyone let me know if it is available in pharmacy in UK. Thanks Patricia

Hi. Your have to jump through hoops to get this in the UK. And a numerologist has to prescribe it for you. This link might help answer some of questions. https://www.mstrust.org.uk/news/sativex-cost-effective-final-nice-guideline-cannabis-based-medicines

Hi! I'm also in Ireland and see that you posted this a long time ago. I think the situation here may have changed a bit. I'm wondering if you got anywhere with this Patricia? I've only been diagnosed officially for 3 weeks but I'm PPMS and in a wheelchair and seeing neuro next week re. treatment. I get the impression from a thing I read on the MSSociety Ireland site that perhaps you can now get a prescription from neuro now but I'm concerned about cost etc. Thanks, Jane
