State Regulations of Cannabis in Pennsylvania
In Pennsylvania, all cannabis regulations fall under the legal framework of medical marijuana, as recreational marijuana is illegal. 1-8oz.com is a legally licensed marijuana dispensary in Pennsylvania where all of the federal and state laws are adhered to. Pennsylvania’s medical cannabis program established under the Medical Marijuana Act (Act 16) in 2016, has been in a legally regulated environment since 2018 and provides individuals 18 years of age and older who have qualified conditions (like cancer, epilepsy, PTSD or chronic pain) access to cannabis products through licensed dispensaries. Pennsylvania has licensed a total of 25 dispensary organizations and even though each dispensary organization can operate a maximum of three dispensary locations, this prevents people from regions like Pittsburgh and Philadelphia from being underserved.
All cannabis products must be tested before sale, which has been established for safety and specified potency. The permitted product types include flower, vapes, edibles and concentrates- but public places do not permit consumption.
