At Medicinal Organic Cannabis Australia (MOCA), we are dedicated to providing healthcare professionals with the resources and support they need to prescribe and manage medicinal cannabis treatments in line with Australian regulatory standards. As a leading supplier of high-quality, organic medical cannabis, MOCA offers healthcare providers the opportunity to offer patients innovative treatment options for a range of conditions, all within the framework of TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) guidelines.
MOCA Health is committed to ensuring that healthcare professionals are equipped with the latest, evidence-based information on medicinal cannabis. Our products are rigorously tested for purity and potency to meet stringent Australian standards, ensuring that doctors, pharmacists, and other healthcare providers can offer safe, effective treatments to their patients.
Our product range includes both THC and CBD-based therapies, with options that are tailored to the specific needs of patients. From our full-spectrum blends to isolated compounds, we work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure that treatment plans are customized to meet individual patient requirements.
The TGA is responsible for regulating the use of medicinal cannabis in Australia, ensuring that these therapies are safe and effective for patients. To prescribe medicinal cannabis, healthcare professionals must adhere to the guidelines set out by the TGA, which include:
Specialist Registration: Prescribing medicinal cannabis typically requires the involvement of an authorized prescriber. For most conditions, a medical practitioner must apply to the TGA to become an authorized prescriber, which allows them to prescribe medicinal cannabis without needing to apply for individual approval for each patient.
Patient Eligibility: Medicinal cannabis products are typically prescribed for patients with specific conditions such as chronic pain, epilepsy, and certain neurological disorders. It is essential that the patient has not responded to other conventional treatments.
Prescription Process: Once a patient has been evaluated, and medicinal cannabis is deemed appropriate, healthcare professionals can prescribe a product from MOCA Health’s range of cannabis-based medications. This includes oils, extracts, and other formulations that are customized to each patient’s therapeutic needs.
Monitoring and Reporting: The TGA requires ongoing monitoring of patients who are prescribed medicinal cannabis. Healthcare providers are encouraged to report adverse events and track the progress of their patients to ensure the effectiveness of the prescribed treatment.
At MOCA, we aim to provide healthcare professionals with comprehensive support in prescribing medicinal cannabis. We offer the following resources to assist in the prescribing process:
Detailed Product Information: Our product descriptions, including THC and CBD content, formulations, and recommended dosages, ensure healthcare professionals have all the information they need to make informed decisions.
Patient Management Tools: MOCA Health provides access to tools to help monitor patient progress, adjust dosages, and keep track of treatment plans. These tools are designed to be easy to use and are aligned with current best practices in patient care.
Titration Guides: Understanding the correct dosage and how to titrate cannabis medications is critical for effective patient care. MOCA Health offers titration guides to help healthcare professionals carefully manage patient treatment, ensuring optimal therapeutic outcomes.
Ongoing Education and Support: MOCA Health is committed to supporting healthcare professionals through continuous education. We regularly offer webinars, clinical updates, and educational resources to ensure healthcare providers stay up to date with the latest developments in medicinal cannabis use.
