Paraguay caps medical cannabis at thirteen licences

Decree 9303 of 2018, the regulation of the medical cannabis law, allowed the health regulator to issue no more than thirteen licences to produce, process and sell medical cannabis, and confined growing to the Central department. Licences went to twelve firms, pharmaceutical laboratories required to give at least 2% of their output to the health ministry for free distribution.[1][2]
