When it comes to the Florida medical marijuana registry, how much do you know? If you are in need of more information, information, stay tuned because we’re covering everything you need to know.
Florida Medical Marijuana Registry: Everything You Need to Know
The Medical Marijuana Use Registry is managed by the Florida department of health and you can find the website for the registry here: Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry. This website is a portal where you can log in as a patient and view and manage your account.
The Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry website is a limited use site and can only be accessed by patients, doctors, and caregivers of individuals with a legitimate medical marijuana prescription in the state of Florida. When logging in, your username is going to be your email address as your physician entered it into the database.
If you are looking for more information on medical marijuana use, you are better off going to the website for responsible use, also managed by the Florida health department. (This site is titled “The Florida Department of Health
Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU)” but the website URL is “Know the Facts MMJ” in case you think you have been directed to the wrong website.)
If you need to log in to the registry to renew your current medical marijuana card, you can find all of the renewal information you need on the Florida Medical Marijuana Card renewal application help page.
The Florida Department of Health Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) Website
As part of the Florida medical marijuana registry, the OMMU website is more informative where the actual registry page is simply a login page where you can manage your account and prescriptions.
The OMMU website provides just about every piece of information that you could need to know before getting your prescription card and to guide you through the use of that card once you have it in hand.
Some of the resources that you may find particularly helpful include
- Basic information about the OMMU
- Information about your registry identification card
- A searchable database for physicians who are qualified to legally prescribe medical marijuana in Florida.
- Information about COVID-19 and how to manage your prescription card and prescriptions during this time.
- Information about smoking medical marijuana as a treatment method.
- Listings of regulatory information including medical notices and public gatherings that apply to medical cannabis use.
- Medical marijuana treatment center locations.
The OMMU also offers much of the information that we have covered here on our blog –
- The steps to take to obtain a medical marijuana prescription card.
- The information that you need to complete your application for a medical marijuana prescription card.
The OMMU also has resources for doctors who are able to prescribe medical marijuana to their patients.
A Note on New Developments
Recently – on August 27th, 2020, patients who qualify are now able to purchase edible medical marijuana items. In order to use medical cannabis edibles, your doctor must specify that edibles are prescribed. Doctors can also add an edible order onto an existing certification for medical cannabis use. Patients do not have to be recertified to obtain a prescription for medical marijuana edibles.
