Cannabis-based product for medicinal use: In UK practice, this term refers to products that meet the legal definition used after the 2018 law change. NICE also uses it as part of its prescribing framework.
It is one of the most important glossary terms because it sits behind much legal and clinical guidance.
Since 1 November 2018, specialist doctors have been able to prescribe medicinal cannabis products within the UK framework.
Not every CBD product, hemp product or cannabis-branded item is a CBPM.
