Company obtains decision from Federal Court and is authorized to handle cannabis products
Favorable decision to Biomagistral network allows the production of formulations with Cannabidiol under prescription
The 4th Federal Court of São José do Rio Preto granted a favorable decision to Biomagistral, recognizing the right of the compounding pharmacy network to produce and dispense formulations containing Cannabidiol (CBD) under medical prescription at one of its units.
"Implementing the prescription of Cannabidiol within compounding pharmacies opens up a vast universe of pharmaceutical possibilities," says Myrcieli Marconatto, owner of the company.
"We can formulate the active ingredient in a format that best suits each patient — whether in drops, gummies, spray, chocolates, etc. This greatly facilitates the patient's adherence to the treatment over time, by offering the medication in a comfortable format," she adds.
According to Marconatto, another relevant aspect of the compounding entry into this market is the more competitive price. This reduces the cost of treatment for families that depend on it.
"Every decision, every dialogue, and every advancement has a higher purpose: turning pain into results and empathy into action."
The fight for access to cannabis products
Myrcieli is the mother of Heitor, 9 years old, a child with autism level 3 and Down syndrome.
Her personal experience has placed her at the forefront of a social struggle that mobilizes families, doctors, researchers, and policymakers across the country. The fight advocates for the right to access therapies based on Cannabidiol with safety, quality, and scientific support.
Over the past few years, Myrcieli has been intensely dedicated to promoting information, combating prejudice, and building bridges between science, legislation, and social responsibility. She always advocates for the ethical, accessible, and humanized regulation of medicinal Cannabis in Brazil.
Myrcieli reports receiving monthly requests from countless families who do not know exactly how to access the medication. She dedicates her time to assist and clarify all she can, often on weekends.
"Time always ends up extending in the face of difficulties, and the patient takes a long time — and often cannot — to access the medication," she concludes.
