- Must be an Ohio resident with a valid government ID.
- Must have a qualifying medical condition verified by the state program.
- Must receive a recommendation from a certified physician to enroll.
- Enrollment requires registration in the state’s patient and caregiver registry.
- Approved products may include oils, edibles, tinctures, patches, lotions, and vaporized forms.
- Smoking/combustion is not permitted under state law.
- Oversight consolidated in 2023 within the Department of Commerce.
Ohio Reform Timeline
2016 – Ohio’s legislature legalizes medical cannabis with HB 523.
2018–2019 – Infrastructure (dispensaries, testing labs, processors) launches; patient registration begins in early 2019.
2023 – HB 33 passed, consolidating medical cannabis oversight under DMC and streamlining renewals, dispensary licensing, rules.
Late 2023 / 2024 – Voters approve Issue 2, legalizing adult-use cannabis (for adults 21+) with regulated sales starting in August 2024.
2025+ – The regulatory system continues to evolve, integrating licensing for recreational sales, adjusting possession and purchase rules, and balancing program oversight.
Ohio Possession Limit
Under the medical cannabis program, registered patients (and their caregivers) may possess up to a 90-day supply of cannabis products.
The 90-day allotment is divided into two 45-day fill periods. Patients cannot exceed the 45-day allocation within each fill window.
Ohio uses the concept of a “whole day unit” to standardize different product types. Some typical values:
- Flower / plant material: ~2.83 grams per “day unit” (i.e. one-tenth of an ounce)
- Vaporization oils: ~590 mg THC per day unit
- Oral oils, tinctures, capsules, edibles: ~110 mg THC per day unit Topicals (patches, lotions, creams, ointments): ~295 mg THC per day unit
As examples of aggregate 90-day limits (across product types):
- Flower (Tier I, ≤ 23% THC) limit is up to 8 oz (≈ 226.8 g)
- Flower (Tier II, > 23% THC) limit is up to 5.3 oz (≈ 150.3 g)
- Vaporization oils / concentrates: up to 53.1 g THC total
- Oral forms (edibles, capsules, tinctures): up to 9.9 g THC total
- Topical forms (lotions, patches, creams): up to 26.55 g THC total
Patients designated as terminally ill may receive an additional allowance within each 45-day period.
Under Ohio’s recreational law, non-medical adults (21+) may possess up to 2.5 ounces of plant material or 15 grams of concentrates (extracts) at any given time.
