Croatia legalizes medicinal marijuana
Starting today, doctors in Croatia can prescribe cannabis for medicinal use to people suffering from diseases such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, cancer, or AIDS.
The amount of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) that can be prescribed cannot exceed 750 mg per month and will be supplied by eight pharmaceutical companies registered for the use of cannabis.
The Ministry of Health declares that the cultivation of marijuana will remain illegal even for medicinal purposes and warns that marijuana does not cure these diseases but rather serves to relieve pain and some symptoms of some serious chronic illnesses.
