The country produced nearly 95 tons of medical marijuana and exported nearly 2.1 tons in 2016.
In addition, in November 2018, the UK government changed the law on medicinal cannabis consumption and moved it from schedule 1 to schedule 2 drugs, which allowed doctors to prescribe it to patients suffering from certain medical conditions.

In the UK, according to Institute of Economic Affairs, illegal cannabis trade is worth USD 3.2 billion, and more than 255 tons was sold to 3 million users between 2016 and 2017.
