The difference between recreational and medical marijuana in Oregon primarily lies in their intended use and the availability of certain products. Recreational marijuana is for adult-use and enjoyment, while medical marijuana is intended to alleviate symptoms of specific medical conditions. To choose the right products, consult with our knowledgeable staff or a healthcare professional to discuss your needs and preferences.
To obtain a medical marijuana card in Oregon, you must have a qualifying medical condition, such as cancer, glaucoma, HIV/AIDS, or severe pain, among others. You will need to consult with a licensed physician who can provide a recommendation for medical marijuana use. Then, complete the Oregon Medical Marijuana Program (OMMP) application and submit it along with the required documentation and fees.
General requirements for purchasing cannabis legally at a dispensary include being of legal age (typically at least 21 years old) for recreational use or having a valid medical marijuana card for medical use. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID (such as a driver’s license or passport) to verify your age or medical marijuana status. Staff at the dispensary will assist you in selecting products and guide you through the purchasing process.
