In this practical session, Professor Mike Barnes, Chair of the Medical Cannabis Clinicians Society (MCCS), will walk through the key principles of the Good Practice Guide for Prescribers of Cannabis-Based Medicinal Products (CBPMs) – the definitive framework for safe, ethical, and compliant prescribing in the UK.  In this webinar, explore the updated guidance, including best practice in consultations, peer review, prescribing protocols, and follow-up care.

Developed by clinicians for clinicians, the Guide brings clarity and consistency to an evolving field. Professor Barnes will explain why the framework matters, how it aligns with GMC and MHRA expectations, and how prescribers can apply it to strengthen clinical practice and protect patients.
