Medical marijuana certification
What We Do
Before purchasing cannabis from a medical marijuana treatment center, Florida patients must first qualify for a medical marijuana certification; CannaMD provides qualified patients with the state-required recommendation to complete this process.
Conditions That Qualify
Medical cannabis became legal in Florida in 2016, with the passing of the Florida Medical Marijuana Legalization Initiative, also known as Amendment 2. Rules for use and administration were outlined several months later by Senate Bill 8A. According to Florida state law, patients suffering from the following conditions may qualify for medical marijuana treatment:
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) *
- Terminal Conditions
- Chronic Nonmalignant Pain **
* Requires psychiatric diagnosis
** Pain that is caused by or originates from a qualifying medical condition and persists beyond the usual course of that condition
