Have you considered using medical marijuana to help with your condition? If you’re thinking about trying medical marijuana, you’ll need a medical marijuana card.

Before you’re given any consideration for a card, you need to bring or upload medical records from within the last year that documents certain medical conditions.

Afterward, a patient and/or caregiver must submit a completed application to the Office of Medical Marijuana with a passport photo, a copy of State ID/proof of residency, and the required fee (currently $75).
