Low-dose cannabidiol (CBD) can be sold in pharmacies around Australia from today, for the first time without prescription.The chemical compound – extracted from cannabis – is used to treat a number of health issues, including pain, insomnia and anxiety, and can now be bought over-the-counter after the Therapeutic Goods
Administration (TGA) approved its sale last month.While the product will only be available to adults in doses of no more than 150 milligrams per day, patients will no longer require a referral or special approval for its legal use.
