CEO, Jeppe Krog Rasmussen, highlights:

"The future of medicinal cannabis in Denmark - from pilot to permanent:

It is with great excitement that I share a pivotal moment for the medicinal cannabis industry in Denmark. The Danish government has announced its intention to make the Pilot Programme for prescription-based medicinal cannabis a permanent initiative. This is a testament to the progress we have all been working towards and a significant step forward for the patients who rely on these treatments.

This proposal, presented by the Minister of the Interior and Health, Sophie Løhde, is grounded in a thorough evaluation that highlights a remarkable increase in the number of prescriptions filled. Since the programme’s inception in 2018, the uptake has steadily grown, with approximately 20,000 prescriptions issued over the past three years - a clear indication of the growing recognition of medicinal cannabis as a valuable treatment option.

The Pilot Programme was initially designed to offer a lifeline to patients with conditions such as multiple sclerosis or cancer, providing them with a legal framework to access medicinal cannabis as part of their care. Today, the numbers speak volumes, with around 1,800 patients currently benefiting from these treatments.

As Minister Løhde stated, "We see that many patients prescribed medicinal cannabis by their doctors appear to benefit from the treatment. This includes cancer patients suffering severe nausea after chemotherapy and individuals with multiple sclerosis experiencing intense pain." The government’s commitment to making this programme permanent reflects its dedication to ensuring continued access to these therapies for those who need them most."
