Clinics Medicann UK

should be legislation to provide pre sale expiry date on cannabis,

forgive me, I'm from a place where you either need to fix it yourself or find a work around that suits, but not by really following the rules 🤞 SAans cannot shake the need to fix things, systems that don't make sense, that we feel are wrong or broken, perhaps its because we come from a broken system that involved creative workarounds to survive
 
Interesting one here 🤔

I see that Medicann previously stocked the GK Pavé S1. It’s OOS everywhere except Newgrove.
Just emailed Medicann asking if they’d prescribe me some from Newgrove.

First was told only products on their portal. I replied saying it’s on the portal just OOS and that are they confirming I can’t externally dispense this medication.

I got the reply confirming that.

MedBud does mention they’re iffy about using external pharmacy especially for products they’ve never stocked/approved - but the GK Pavé surely right???

I’m more than satisfied with Medicann’s 200+ at any given time flower range nonetheless. Shits on Montu 💪🏼

It is their policy, it goes against official guidance not to allow scripts to go elsewhere, other clinics have done/do the same. Medi hold a reserved stock, a subset of IPS formularly and also buy short dated stock in addition to normal supply, bargains can be had. There may be changes on the way due to regulatory oversight of all clinics.

I use them for simplicity, I know what I want and why and need it soon without the faff. I'm happyfor the tradeoffs with no other pharms 8)

Can anyone help with Flower Limits?

14th April - ordered 30g

The 90g limit would reset on 12th May (28 days) as is noted on the prescription information for “Renewal Date”

My question is, are they harsh/fixed on that renewal date or have patients been able to start ordering again before exact renewal date?

Alternaleaf used to let me request my monthly repeat 21 days into the 28 day cycle. Was particularly handy if running low or new products coming to market.

Ignore the renewel date 😁 I've never once had any communication stating I'm trying to request a prescription before the stated renewel date.

Haha love that!

The issue is when you get to the limit, can’t add any more flower to basket. How long does that “block” last for is my question.

Probably would require a rare scenario where someone orders their entire allowance in one go until they can’t add anymore in basket. How long does that last? 😂

I'm not 100% sure on that to be honest, good question! 🤔

Indeed!

Would be keen to hear if anyone has experience with this.

Coming from a very restrictive clinic and pharmacy - I want to be as free as possible.

Email them, I'm sure they will respond to your query 👍. I order as and when needed, that gives me a chance to jump on any price drops if they come along. Ordering a whole months worth at once isn't really ideal for me.

Oh I can help with the limits
They run on a rolling 28 days basis. So if you start by ordering 40g then 30g they reset independently. Not by the calendar month.
The date that the medication is dispatched by IPS starts as the timer
So not the date you ordered, the date that Dr Sunny prescribes, or the date you paid!
Sometimes the system will let you order one day earlier than the date it should which is odd but shhh 🤫
The most issues are caused if you order say after cutoff friday, it is prescribed and paid friday but then doesnt get sent by IPS till Monday so the dates get borked
I had a whole email extravaganza getting to the bottom of how it works. What @TheGreenAvenger said is right about not trusting the date it says for renewal and the info I posted is as accurate a process as can be predicted...

Amazing reply - thank you!

Defo shed some more light on this topic.
I guess never order on a Friday unless something low stock. Won’t get posted till Monday anyway. I tend to try to stick to next day cut off (2:30pm Mon-Fri) anyway.

Something else worth mentioning, my initial 30g order has its own 28 day reset, my 20g order a few days later has its own 28 day reset also.

I’m thinking that I’ll have 30g again only when cycle first resets. Or would it be 90 again as a full 28 days have lapsed? 🤔😂

Best thing is to book a consultation for a higher limit so I don’t ever have to worry about this. I know it’s on a patient to patient basis but anyone care to share their “high” limits? Hoping for 120-150g of flower 🙏

So I signed up in the New Year prior to the whole "By Integro" thing
There were only a few staff to book appointment from. It took a whole month to do waiting on appointments.
Anyway point of that story is that I got a 120g default limit. Prior it seems Medicann operated with no "limits" persay

I helped sign a friend up last week for medicann. There were many new staff to book from. The whole process took 4 days from submission of docs!!!
He got a 90g default limit.
It therefore seems there has been a change in these limits. I recently requested an increase and the first advice the doctor gave was to try oils and vapes rather than to immediately increase. Whilst maybe not what I wanted, this was good medical advice.

Tldr: They changed things recently. You should have a consultation a month after signing, you need to book this yourself. You cannot get a limit increase by just messaging customer service. You can ask then.

Your limits depends on your Health Condition/s issues. It varies from person to person 👍.
Most people who are signed up to medicann are not new to Cannabis or clinics, the ones who are new to Cannabis or haven't tried it since uni or whatever youll find are treated differently and if you feel you need a follow up you just contact them and they respond very quick especially if your having issues with meds in one way or another or health has deteriorated👍
 
How are you guys getting stock updates now holly has put a sock in it? 🤔
Keep an eye on the live Pharmacy formulary here. It updates more than once an hour usually.

@TheGreenAvenger has a Google Doc in his bio.

The Medicann app also gives you live numbers. Especially when “Low stock”. It’ll tell you e.g 3 left.
