Medical Marijuana Legalization in PA

On April 17, 2016, Gov. Tom Wolf signed into law SB 3, Pennsylvania’s compassionate medical cannabis legislation. The law would not take full effect until May 17, 2016, and the first dispensaries in PA started serving patients in the month of April 2018. On June 30, 2021, Governor Wolf signed HB 1024, that would update Pennsylvania’s medical cannabis legislation and this law went into effect right away upon his signature. Recreational marijuana is still prohibited in Pennsylvania, though there have been several initiatives to legalize it, however edibles such as gummies, chocolates, and other snacks are still not available for purchase.  Today only patients suffering from one of 23 medical conditions can participate in Pennsylvania’s medical marijuana program. If you want to know if you can qualify for these contact us, and our virtual doctors can help.
