Issued on Monday, the “P.T.33” form will allow practitioners from seven professions — including doctors, dentists, pharmacists and traditional healers — to prescribe cannabis to patients suffering from 15 health conditions, according to a report from the Thaiger news website.
Doctors will be required to record in each prescription form patient details, including name, age, nationality, identification number, diagnosed symptoms, daily cannabis dosage, duration of use and total quantity to be dispensed.
The amount sold will be limited to 30 days’ supply for each prescription, and dispensers are required to keep such records for one year for government inspections.
The prescription form, which will apply to both locals and foreigners, will take effect soon.
