Warking is planning sharp restrictions for online cannabis recipes!

Warken, Deutschland - Federal Minister of Health Nina Warken (CDU) expresses concerns about the increasing consumption of medical cannabis in Germany. In her opinion, this is "very clear abuse". According to the Federal Institute for Medicines and Medical Devices (BfArM), the consumption of medical cannabis has tripled from April 2023 to April 2024, from 31 to 100 tons. This has prompted Warken to plan measures to restrict online bonds for cannabis, which in their opinion are too easily accessible.

Currently, users can check symptoms in a short time and then receive a recipe. This procedure criticizes them. Warken also emphasizes that medical cannabis is only intended for people with serious illnesses and should not be used for normal consumption. "Cannabis is a noise drug that can endanger young people and young adults," she warns.

Restrictions on the online prescriptions

The minister emphasizes that a clear indication should be necessary for the prescription of medical cannabis. The current system enables you to have a recipe exhibited with just a few clicks, which Warken considers as problematic. It sees the better quality and the fixed price of medical scannabis to illegal cannabis, but this cannot hide the fact that access to the prescription products has been significantly simplified.

also recognizes WARKE that the increase in the consumption of medical cannabis is "disturbing". These developments are in the context of the evaluation of the legalization of cannabis agreed in the coalition agreement of the Union and the SPD, the results of which they want to wait before further measures are taken.

Their views reflect a comprehensive discussion about the responsible use of medical cannabis in Germany. Information on the planned measures and the votes within politics will continue to be observed.

The debate about the use of medical cannabis remains an important topic in the political agenda. Further developments are expected, especially after the legalization of the legalization, which is to take place in autumn. In this context, Warken remains vigilant for possible changes in legislation.
