Compounding cannabis

Compounding Cannabis is uniquely preparing, formulating, and dispensing cannabis that is tailored to each patient. In Australia, cannabis medicines are able to be legally prepared and dispensed by approved and licensed compounding pharmacies. It is a another pathway available to access medical cannabis products including CBD and THC oils which is seperate from the TGA's Special Access Scheme. 


What is Medicinal Cannabis?

Cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are the major constituents of the plant Cannabis Sativa and the most widely studied for potential benefits in many human medical ailments.

CBD is a not a psychoactive component of the cannabis plant and hence on its own is classified as an S4 or prescription only product in Australia and can be prescribed by any registered medical practitioner, once thorough assessment has been carried out. CBD oil is a schedule 4 and there are no additional steps required after receiving a prescription from your doctor. ​

THC has psychoactive properties and is therefore classed as an S8 and requires approval from the state health departments before prescribing. This step may take an additional few weeks, and once approved; you can contact your compounding pharmacist to fulfill your script.

No medicinal cannabis products of any type are subsidised through the PBS scheme in Australia.



Researchers are studying whether medical marijuana can help treat a number of conditions including:
  • Alzheimer's disease
  • Appetite loss
  • Cancer
  • Crohn's disease
  • Diseases effecting the immune system like HIV/AIDS or Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  • Eating disorders such as anorexia
  • Epilepsy
  • Glaucoma
  • Mental health conditions like schizophrenia and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Muscle spasms
  • Nausea
  • Pain
  • Seizures
  • Wasting syndrome (cachexia)
