Brazil cannabis-derived CBD regulation

Overview

Brazil’s National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) is finalizing new regulations to govern the magistral manipulation of cannabidiol (CBD) preparations. The agency has classified this regulatory work as a priority to address issues stemming from previous rules that excluded compounding pharmacies from working with cannabis-derived products.

By allowing pharmacies to compound CBD isolate with a minimum purity of 98%, the forthcoming norm aims to reduce legal uncertainty, improve patient access, and decrease the reliance on judicial interventions to secure supplies.
