Plain-language summary. The regulator is Care Quality Commission.
Possession (no prescription)
Illegal. Cannabis is Class B, with a maximum of five years' imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine; for possession, police may instead give a warning or a penalty notice of up to £90 on the spot.
Prescribed cannabis
Legal when prescribed by a doctor on the GMC Specialist Register and dispensed by a registered pharmacy.
Home grow
Illegal. Growing counts as production of a Class B drug, with a maximum of 14 years in prison; a prescription does not permit cultivation.
Public use
Using non-prescribed cannabis anywhere is illegal, and prescribed cannabis-based products must not be smoked.
Driving
Driving while impaired is illegal everywhere in the UK. England, Scotland and Wales also have drug limits (THC: 2 µg per litre of blood in England and Wales); the limit offense does not apply to drugs taken as prescribed if you are fit to drive. Minimum penalty: a one-year ban.
CBD products
Allowed as food only if linked to an application on the FSA public list (England and Wales) and if controlled cannabinoids such as THC stay within 1 mg per container.
Daily CBD intake
FSA advice: healthy adults should have no more than 10 mg of CBD a day from food; the THC safe upper limit is about 70 µg a day for an adult (July 2025).
Age
No statutory minimum age for a specialist prescription (NHS use includes children with rare epilepsies), but the private clinics in our directory take adults only (18+, or 21+ at Integro). The FSA advises under-18s not to take CBD.
Summary, not legal advice — rules change; check local law. Last reviewed Sep 2026.

What the first fee does not cover
Medical Rehabilitation pairs cannabis with conventional prescribing and psychotherapy, which is unusual for a clinic this size. Prescriptions run one month at a time and go to a pharmacy you choose, so the medicine bill arrives separately and depends on that pharmacy. Ask for the whole fee list before booking, because the £189.99 is only the opening charge. The clinic has no Trustpilot page, and the feedback Verdex found comes from the doctor's own profiles, so treat it as marketing until independent reviews appear. Costs and clinic choice are covered in the UK prescription guide; other English places sit under England.
Cannabis in Taunton: questions
Does Taunton have a cannabis pharmacy counter?
Verdex lists none. The one Taunton entry is a prescribing clinic, and the prescription is sent to a pharmacy you name, wherever it is.
Is the clinic regulated?
Yes. The CQC register shows it registered on 9 August 2023, and a doctor on the GMC specialist register must direct any prescription for these products.
