If you’re smoking it I can’t see how that could be a medical prescription.
And according the NHS info below, it seems highly unlikely you’d be driving HGVs on a medical cannabis prescription.From nhs.uk/conditions/medical-cannabis/
Can I get a prescription for medical cannabis?
Very few people in England are likely to get a prescription for medical cannabis.
Currently, it is only likely to be prescribed for the following conditions:
children and adults with rare, severe forms of epilepsy
adults with vomiting or nausea caused by chemotherapy
people with muscle stiffness and spasms caused by multiple sclerosis (MS)
It would only be considered when other treatments were not suitable or had not helped.
If you want information on how you can get medical cannabis in the U.K. the best place to go is the U.K. medical cannabis subreddit. You’ll be able to find out there if you will be eligible and the prices involved.
