Portuguese Authorities Set Retail Price For Medical Cannabis

Portuguese patients can look forward to a more regulated retail price for medical cannabis at pharmacies as of April this year. Infarmed, the Portuguese version of the FDA, has set the price for 15-gram bags of medical cannabis at the point of sale in pharmacies at €150 per bag of 18% THC flower.
