Is Weed Legal in Ohio?

Fortunately, yes!

Access to weed is legal for qualified patients and their caregivers.
However, Ohio doesn’t permit the adult use of marijuana. Let us dive into everything you need to know about medical marijuana access in Ohio.

Ohio’s Cannabis Legislation History!

In June 2016, Gov. John Kasich signed an HB523 which started the Ohio state’s Medical Marijuana Control Program permitting the use of medical marijuana to qualified patients with a written recommendation.


This bill made the Department of Commerce responsible for developing laws regulating and licensing medical cannabis. The Board of Pharmacy was placed in charge of setting up patients and caregivers registry and licensing dispensaries.

Where is it safe to buy cannabis in Ohio?

The eligible and registered patients with the state can buy a 45-day supply of medical cannabis in any of the following forms:

  • Edibles
  • Creams
  • Tinctures
  • Oils
  • Flower
  • Patches

You can easily buy your medical cannabis products from any of the state-licensed dispensaries.

Where is it safe to consume?

Medical cannabis consumption must be done in a private space only. Though the marijuana flower is legal in Ohio, a smoking form of consumption is not permitted. So, the patients interested in consuming marijuana flowers must buy some vaporizing equipment or make some homemade edibles.


It is also essential to know that making concentrates at home is illicit.
