Aurora’s project for cannabis in Ireland

Aurora’s drops have been approved by the Irish authorities and included in a regulatory plan by the Irish Minister of Health to allow import, prescription, and delivery.

This is one of only two approved products. However, Dr. Shane Morris, Chief Product Officer, is satisfied.

“Aurora is delighted to be able to help patients in Ireland seeking EU-GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) pharmaceutical grade certified medical cannabis in Ireland.

We are very proud that our medical cannabis products are one of the first approved under MCAP,” Morris added.

“The company looks forward to the approval of higher-quality medicines to allow more patients to benefit from cannabis in Ireland.”

“We will continue to work closely with all stakeholders and government agencies to facilitate further availability”.

Cannabis stocks keep fluctuating

The Aurora Cannabis stock reacted pre-market with a large 3% price increase.

After the opening of the Toronto Home Exchange, however, Aurora Cannabis shares plummeted by more than 2%.

The growth rates of companies specializing in the production and sale of products containing cannabidiol are taking on almost unbelievable dimensions.

Will Ireland include CBD-based products?

Veritas Farms Inc. is a vertically integrated agribusiness, which focuses on the production and distribution of high-quality full-spectrum hemp oil products with naturally occurring cannabinoids.

Currently, the company produces nine categories of CBD-based products, among which are lotions, tinctures, vegan capsules and pet products.
