Langnau im Emmental, Bern PharmacyAbout Bahnhof Apotheke Langnau (Cannaplant)
Pharmacy in Langnau im Emmental whose Cannaplant unit prepares prescribed dronabinol and cannabis tinctures; part of Galenica.
Bahnhof Apotheke Langnau is a pharmacy in Langnau im Emmental, in the canton of Bern, whose Cannaplant department specializes in prescribed cannabis medicines. It is one of the pharmacies most closely associated with medical cannabis in Switzerland: its pharmacist Manfred Fankhauser has worked for many years on dronabinol (THC) and natural cannabis tinctures, and Galenica describes Cannaplant as the country's leading provider of formulations for medical cannabis products.
The pharmacy joined the Galenica network in November 2022. Galenica's 2022 annual report said it served between 300 and 400 long-term patients across Switzerland. Cannaplant runs as a separate unit, reachable by phone during the week from 8 a.m. to noon and 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturday mornings until 11:30. It asks patients and doctors to get in touch directly rather than walk in, and detailed product information sits behind a login for health professionals.
The legal background changed in 2022. Since August 1 of that year, doctors in Switzerland can prescribe cannabis medicines without first obtaining an exceptional authorisation from the Federal Office of Public Health, while cultivation, manufacturing and trade fall under Swissmedic's licensing and control. Non-medical cannabis stays prohibited outside the pilot trials.
For patients looking for a medical cannabis pharmacy in Switzerland, the pharmacy fills prescriptions for magistral preparations. You need a prescription from your own doctor first. Whether health insurance covers the cost is decided case by case and is not addressed on the pages Verdex read.
