The rules

Key rules in the United Kingdom

Plain-language summary. The regulator is Healthcare Improvement Scotland.

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.

How it works

How cannabis is sold in Stirling

Sapphire Medical, the first medical cannabis clinic approved by Healthcare Improvement Scotland, is based in Stirling, and the only seller Verdex lists here is the pharmacy group that sends patients to it.

How does collection work?

According to the group's own page, you ask at a branch or contact Sapphire Medical, hold a video consultation with a specialist, and, if treatment is approved, collect from the branch you chose. A directory counts Right Medicine Pharmacy at 42 branches. No consultation or medicine prices are published, and the group's Trustpilot profile has seven reviews, none about cannabis. Picking up in person rather than waiting for a courier is what separates it from online-only pharmacies.

How busy did the first days get?

Sapphire's first appointments opened on 22 March 2021, and the Scotsman reported hundreds of people seeking treatment within days; the Press and Journal put the first-week figure above 500. The clinic itself says it now has more than 1,000 active Scottish patients, which is a company statement rather than an audited count. More on the country is on the Scotland page.
