Out of curiosity, does medical ethics as governed by official medical bodies say anything about whether it's ethical for doctors to prescribe drugs for recreational, rather than medical, use?

I would argue it from the other direction: it's unethical for a doctor NOT to recommend cannabis to a patient seeking it. Based on the evidence we have available today, incarceration causes more health problems than cannabis use.
