Ohio sold $75k in medical marijuana on first day of legal sales

The Ohio Medical Marijuana Program sold $75,000 worth of medicinal cannabis Wednesday on the first day of legal sales in the state.

Four dispensaries sold 8.7 pounds of marijuana to patients and caregivers, according to numbers released by the state on Thursday.

Ohio legalized medical marijuana in 2016 in legislation that authorized use by patients with any of 21 conditions, including cancer or chronic pain. A certified physician must confirm that the drug will be used to treat at least one of the conditions.

Look for Ohio to legalize all marijuana.   PA legalized medical marijuana last year and now there is an effort underway to legalize pot for recreational uses.

With regard to Ohio, I saw a fellow on the news who claimed he just had to get mj to treat his 96-year-old grandmother's insomnia. Yeah, right.

To me those who use are expendables.

I think that was the view of Wm Buckley but he didn't
say it that way.

Any implied approval of the government tell the dull
and young it is A OK. A mistake.

So we will flush the naive away. Sad.
