01. Am I allowed to buy medicinal products containing cannabis (e.g. THC or CBD) in Iceland?

Yes. The medicinal product Sativex (contains THC and CBD) has a marketing authorization in Iceland. Sativex can be bought in a pharmacy with prescription from physicians who are specialists in neurological diseases.

Physicians in Iceland can apply for other medicinal products which contain THC and/or CBD if they have valid marketing authorizations in other countries. The physician needs to justify why the patient cannot use other medicinal products with marketing authorizations in Iceland.
