What I would tell a patient flying to Denmark
Denmark is one of the more navigable stops on this list. There is a pilot programme alongside Sativex access, and the programme has been renewed more than once, which tells you something about its stability.
The Schengen certificate is accepted for the relevant controlled medicines. Sundhedsstyrelsen is the authority.
What still needs doing is a product-specific review. A programme existing does not mean your preparation is inside it. Check yours by name, and carry the confirmation.
Patient education, not legal or medical advice and not a prescription. Law changes and enforcement varies by officer and by airport. Confirm your exact product, quantity and paperwork in writing with the authority named above and with your own prescriber, and carry the reply.
