A$16.5 million is the maximum civil penalty per breach for a company that advertises a prescription medicine to the public, the TGA reminded businesses on June 18, 2026 when it named medical cannabis services among its targets. That is why a compliant Australian clinic sells a consultation, not a product. Verdex lists 15 clinics: Sydney 5, Brisbane 3, Melbourne 2, Adelaide and Perth one each, and three with no city listed.
Most work by phone or video, such as Australian Access Clinics at Mascot and Cann I Help in Brisbane, while IvyMed holds face-to-face consultations in rooms inside partner pharmacies in Adelaide suburbs. Verdex has verified none of them.

Any registered doctor or nurse practitioner may prescribe, usually through the TGA's Special Access Scheme Category B; only doctors can become Authorised Prescribers. THC products may also need a state or territory permit. Only Epidyolex and Sativex are on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, and only Epidyolex is subsidised, so most patients pay the full price.
| Item | Published figure |
|---|---|
| Initial consultation | About A$99 to A$250 in clinic guides, 2025 to 2026. Verdex profiles record A$99 at Australian Access Clinics, a free first consult at Cann I Help and A$49 at Candor Medical |
| Follow-up | About A$49 to A$120 every one to three months; A$79 at Australian Access Clinics, A$39 for a Candor check-up |
| Product per month | Commonly A$150 to A$400, depending on dose and form |
Ask three things before paying: if a doctor reads your history or only a questionnaire (the TGA has taken a questionnaire-based service to court; no judgment had been published by late September 2026), if you may fill the script at any pharmacy that can source the product, and if a fee applies to release it.
The TGA's 2026-27 plan commits to examining closed-loop clinic-and-pharmacy groups, Business of Cannabis reported. THC still counts at a roadside test; NSW passed a registration scheme on September 17, 2026 that is not yet in force.

Questions about this list
Can my regular GP prescribe medicinal cannabis in Australia?
Yes. The TGA says any registered medical practitioner or nurse practitioner can decide to prescribe it, including your regular GP. Many patients use specialist telehealth clinics because they handle the TGA and state paperwork.
Does Medicare or the PBS cover medicinal cannabis?
Almost never. Only Epidyolex, for certain severe epilepsies, is listed on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme; other products are unapproved and patients pay consultation fees plus the full product price.
Is it legal to drive after medicinal cannabis in Australia?
Roadside tests detect THC regardless of a prescription in most states. New South Wales passed a reform on September 17, 2026 for registered patients, but it had not commenced by late September, so the safe advice is not to drive.
Buying in Australia
Possession (no prescription)
Illegal in all states and the Northern Territory; penalties and diversion schemes vary by state. The ACT allows adults limited personal possession (see below).
Prescribed cannabis
Legal when prescribed by a doctor through the TGA Special Access Scheme or Authorised Prescriber pathway and dispensed by a pharmacy. Only Epidyolex and Sativex are registered medicines.
ACT personal use
Since January 31, 2020 adults 18+ in the ACT may possess up to 50 g dried (150 g fresh) and grow 2 plants per person, 4 per household. Sale, supply and public use remain offenses; Commonwealth law is unchanged.
Home grow
Illegal everywhere except the limited ACT allowance; a prescription does not permit cultivation. Commercial cultivation requires Office of Drug Control licences.
Summary, not legal advice — rules change; check local law.
