Who can prescribe
Any NZ-registered medical practitioner, including GPs, can prescribe products verified to the minimum quality standard — no specialist sign-off needed for most products.
CBD products
CBD products (CBD ≥98% of cannabinoids, THC and specified substances ≤2%) are prescription medicines but NOT controlled drugs. Any indication; up to a 3-month supply.
THC products
THC-containing products are controlled drugs, with a maximum 1-month supply per prescription.
Approved medicines
Only two cannabis medicines are fully Medsafe-approved: Sativex (THC + CBD) and Epidyolex (CBD). Everything else is prescribed as a verified-but-unapproved product.
Funding
Pharmac generally does not fund medicinal cannabis. Patients usually pay the full cost, with rare exceptions via NPPA, ACC or MSD.
