In November 2000, Colorado voters approved Amendment 20 which allows the use of medical cannabis in Colorado with written medical consent.  Under this law patients can possess up to 2 ounces of “medicine” and grow no more than six marijuana plants.  While the law loosely refers to medical marijuana as “medicine”, it cannot be purchased at a pharmacy. Instead patients must get medical marijuana products from a recognized medical marijuana caregiver or a licensed marijuana compassion club, typically called a marijuana dispensary.   The variety and quality of strains varies and many dispensaries also sell seeds and clones for those who want to grow their own.

Colorado law does not allow the use of marijuana in public or for recreational purposes.  For more details check out Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s website or call a dispensary like:

The Clone Store at (303) 558-4333

1405 Ogden Street

This safe and clean medical cannabis center has a large variety of hemp items, including shampoos, soaps, lotions, shaving gels, balms, and more.

They also carry a full line of hemp clothing.  If you are a Colorado medical marijuana patient and are looking for a compassionate marijuana club or are interested in seeing the wide variety of hemp products, you really need to visit the Hemp Center.  I truly had no idea how many products can be produced by medical cannabis and hemp, this is truly one unique medical marijuana dispensary.

Who is eligible in Colorado?

Colorado residents can legally obtain an medical marijuana registry identification card it they have a “debilitating condition” where a doctor provides a recommendation for the use of marijuana for medical conditions such as cancer, glaucoma, and HIV, Cachexia; Severe pain; Severe nausea; Seizures, or muscle spasms.  Many experts on the use of medical cannabis recommend hiring or consulting with an attorney that is familiar with Colorado legislation or a caregiver who can help you understand your rights.

How to become a patient in Colorado?

You will need a physician to provide a written recommendation.  Colorado state law does not allow doctors to write prescriptions.  Not all traditional doctors will offer a recommendation, but most Medical Marijuana Dispensaries, like Grateful Meds can provide the name of doctors who understand the benefits of medical marijuana products to relieve suffering.

After obtaining a doctor’s recommendation, you will need to contact the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to fill out the necessary paper work to obtain a medical marijuana license.   You must assign a medical marijuana caregiver who are protected under Colorado law to help provide you with medical marijuana.  Obtaining a Colorado Medical Marijuana Card costs $110 and needs to be renewed each year.

Despite what appears to be an endless debate over medical marijuana coops, medical marijuana dispensaries, and medical cannabis in general, it has provided relief for thousands.  Medical professionals have found over 100 diseases where medicinal marijuana effectively treated symptoms, including AIDS and Cancer patients who are usually riddled with nausea and loss of appetite.  The marijuana collective at Santa Fe Springs, CA provides each patient with compassionate and confidential service.

When Proposition 215 passed in 1996, it gave qualified patients the right to legally obtain and use medical marijuana for symptom relief.  The law protects you and your designated marijuana caregiver from criminal prosecution. The Santa Fe Springs medical cannabis dispensary can help you or your loved ones create a customized pain management plan.
