What the petition asks
Cannabis Patches should be prescribed on the NHS. It’s safer and cheaper than drugs currently used such as Morphine and Fentanyl.
I have many Chronic Pain conditions. I have been taking controlled drugs for over 12 years such as Morphine, Fentanyl, Oramorph and Tramadol ALL this could be avoided if I could have ONE Cannabis patch. What I take is far more addictive and costs much more than a Cannabis Patch. It’s time we had Cannabis Patches made available on the NHS.
