Your rights

Being a prescribed patient is legal, but living as one raises everyday questions the law does not answer in plain sight. What happens if the police stop you, whether you can drive, what to tell an employer. The worry is usually worse than the reality, but only once you know where you stand.

This is where we set out your rights plainly, grounded in the law and the latest guidance. What protects you, what does not, and what to do in the moment. We explain your position. We do not give legal advice, and we always point you to the right place for your own situation.

Start with the basics below.
