Frequently asked. Frequently answered.
North Carolina hasn’t legalized medical cannabis yet. When it does, it is expected to carry similar age, residency, and qualifying condition requirements as other states.
North Carolina hasn’t legalized medical cannabis yet. When a program is established, it will include the state’s list of qualifying conditions.
In most states with medical marijuana programs, the list of qualifying medical conditions is maintained by either the state’s department of health or a cannabis control board. When North Carolina legalizes medical cannabis, patients will be able to petition the government agency responsible for the list to have their condition added. They also may be able to get the help of their local state representatives in passing legislation to expand the list.
Once medical cannabis is finally legalized in North Carolina, having a medical card will likely be the only way to legally purchase and possess cannabis in the state.
