    Visit a Dispensary in Pennsylvania to Obtain Medical Marijuana

    Once your card arrives in the mail, you can purchase medical marijuana at any dispensary in Pennsylvania. An initial consultation with a dispensary pharmacist is strongly advised. They'll be able to identify the best types of medical marijuana for your specific needs. Because your ID card only allows you to obtain up to a 30-day supply of medical marijuana, it is critical that you consult a pharmacist to ensure that you find the type of marijuana that will help you manage your pain or ailments in a way that doesn’t subject you to discomforting side effects.

ABOUT

Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana

The Pennsylvania General Assembly passed the Medical Marijuana Act (Act) on April 17, 2016. This made the sale, possession, and use of medical cannabis legal. Each patient must be a Pennsylvania resident in order to obtain a medical marijuana card and purchase medical cannabis from dispensaries. In order to obtain certification, a PDH-approved doctor must verify their patient's medical condition.

The MMJ program is open to patients of any years of age. Whether you have intractable seizures or intractable pain, there is a possibility that you may be eligible for marijuana card after your background check. Our team prides itself on working with patients that are combating serious medical issues such as a terminal illness, Tourette, autism, or epilepsy throughout PA. Whether you live in Harrisburg or in the Philadelphia area, you can rest assured that our staff will do everything that we can to help you obtain your Pennsylvania cannabis card.

How to Renew Your Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Card


It's easy to renew your medical marijuana card in Pennsylvania. All that is needed is an updated certificate and the renewal payment. You can continue to be a patient for as long as you like after being added to the state's registry.

To buy marijuana at a dispensary in Pennsylvania, your certification must be updated every 12 months. This time period ensures patient safety by necessitating a reevaluation to make sure medicinal marijuana is still appropriate and safe for each person.

An email will be sent to you 60 days before your certificate expires reminding you to renew it. Then, you can make an online appointment with any of the licensed medical marijuana doctors at the Sanctuary. The visit will be similar to your original medical cannabis consultation.

Thirty days prior to the payment deadline for your renewal, the Department of Health will also send you an email reminder. You can log into your account to confirm that a legitimate payment method is still on file. Your card won't expire if you pay the $50 renewal charge within 30 days of receiving this message.

Your doctor will inquire about your signs and symptoms as well as how you feel after using medical marijuana. Based on your experience, you may ask about dosages and side effects. Your certification will be sent to the state's registry by your doctor. It will instantly connect to your account.

Make sure the address that is listed for you is correct. As long as your doctor's certificate is current and your payment is accepted, the state will automatically mail you a replacement card.
