Out-of-state patients can now buy medical marijuana at NH dispensaries

Patients from out of state can now buy medical marijuana from dispensaries in New Hampshire.

New Hampshire’s health department announced the change this week.

The department said that will allow people who use cannabis for a medical condition to continue doing so while visiting New Hampshire, without violating federal law by transporting it across state lines.

Patients must have a valid medical marijuana card from another state or Canada.

New Hampshire has seven therapeutic cannabis dispensaries around the state.

I report on health and equity for NHPR. My work focuses on questions about who is able to access health care in New Hampshire, who is left out, and how that affects their health and well-being. I want to understand the barriers that make it hard for people to get care – including financial barriers – and what people in power are or aren’t doing to make things better.
