Macau sets licensing and prescription rules for controlled medicines

Macau’s new rules allowed licensed chemical and pharmaceutical businesses to seek authorisation to manufacture controlled medicines, including substances in the cannabis table, while prohibiting cultivation of scheduled plants.[1] Supply to patients went through pharmacies or hospitals and special prescriptions.[1] The law completed the lawful-supply side of the 1991 drug reforms and took effect on 1 August 1999.[1]

Listed for context. No score change is recorded for Macau here.
