How far in advance should I order? Should I stock up?

When ordering large quantities, ensure you have sufficient storage capacity in line with Schedule 8 medicine storage requirements.
What are the delivery timeframes?
Orders submitted before 3pm AEST/AEDT will be delivered to all metro and regional areas the next day. Rural locations require an additional day.
When will my order be shipped?
All orders placed before 3pm AEST/AEDT will be dispatched the same day. Orders placed after 3pm AEST/AEDT will be dispatched the next day.
How do I track my order?
A tracking link is included in your dispatch notification email.
Will my orders ever be split into multiple consignments/deliveries?
Leafio orders may be split into multiple consignments. This is done so that you receive stock as soon as possible, and to avoid instances where third-party hold ups relating to individual products result in the delayed dispatch of an entire order.
Why split orders?
When you order cannabis medicines, multiple stakeholders must approve the order before it can be dispatched. Previously, if one product in an order containing multiple items was not approved, the entire order was delayed until the remaining approval was received.
How are split orders determined?
After an order is received, our automated systems check approvals at multiple points throughout the day. If some products within an order are approved, those items will be prepared for dispatch. The remaining items will be dispatched once approvals are complete, which may mean further splits.
How will this affect invoicing?
When orders are split, an invoice will be issued for each consignment, made out for the items within that shipment. Split orders will retain the same Leafio Order Number, but we will add numerical suffix to indicate separate consignments.
For example, if an order placed under Leafio Order Number 1234 was split into multiple consignments, the invoices will be given reference numbers as follows: 1234-1, 1234-2, 1234-3, etc. This makes it easy to reconcile split invoices under a single order.
What if I find something wrong with a product in my order once it has arrived?
First, check if your issue warrants a return under Leafio’s returns policy.
Please note the size of flower medication does not affect efficiency, small flowers are not considered a problem. Flower products may also arrive +/-10% in weight, these fluctuations are normal and may simply be the result of changes in environment.
Once you’ve confirmed that the issue warrants a return under Leafio’s returns policy, you can proceed by following Leafio’s returns process.
What is Leafio’s returns policy?
For detailed information on Leafio's returns policy, please visit the Leafio Returns Policy page.

What if my patient has a concession card?
Some of our suppliers offer discounts for concession card holders. If your patient presents a concession card, please contact your Account Manager.
What is an extension letter, and where can I find it?
When a cannabis medicine is approaching its original expiry date, it may be re-tested at a batch level to determine its stability. If these tests show that the product is stable, an extension letter may be issued. This extension letter established a new expiry date for the relevant batch of unopened medicines.
To find an extension letter on Leafio, locate the product and click on it to show the full product view. Click on the ‘Supporting documents’ section at the bottom of the page, here you will find any extension letters that apply to this product.
Can I find the expiry date of a product before I order?
We are currently working on incorporating this feature into the Leafio website. In the interim, please contact your Account Manager.
How should medical cannabis be stored?
Schedule 8 cannabis medicines are subject to the same storage requirements as all other Schedule 8 medicines. They must be secured in a dedicated safe, separately from other drugs, that can only be accessed by pharmacists. Medicines requiring refrigeration must be stored in a locked fridge, within a locked room away from the public.
The balance of medicines stored in the safe and/or refrigerator must be included in the dispensing records made by the dispensing pharmacist.
How should patients store medical cannabis?
It is advised that patients store their medical cannabis products securely, away from UV light, heat or excessive moisture. Even if medicines are in child-resistant containers, it is advised that they be stored in a place that’s not accessible to children.
Patients using vape cartridges should also disconnect the cartridge from the battery and store it upright when not in use. This will help to prevent leakage.
Where can I find patient feedback on particular products?
There are several online resources for patients sharing their experiences of medical cannabis products. These include Canna Reviews and Catalyst.
