Medical marijuana has been acknowledged in Ohio as an effective and low-risk option for treating the symptoms related to 25 different conditions. Once you have your Ohio marijuana card in hand, you’ll be able to shop at any cannabis dispensary in the state! There, you can purchase medical marijuana that has been tested and verified for potency and purity.
The list of cannabis products available in Ohio is constantly expanding. When you visit a dispensary, you’ll be able to find botanical marijuana flower for vaping, concentrates, oral sprays, tinctures, THC-infused edibles, lozenges, patches, lotions, other topicals, high CBD products and more!
Access to Other States
An Ohio Marijuana Card gets you access to every cannabis dispensary in the state, but you might end up receiving more value than you originally anticipated!
