If you’re wondering if you should get a medical marijuana card in Arizona, have a look at our Frequently Asked Questions. We want you to have accurate, useful information. If you have any questions not answered here, contact us to speak with an expert.
What are the differences between medical marijuana and recreational marijuana in Arizona?
One of the biggest differences is the potency. Medical marijuana patients have access to products with higher CBD and THC concentrations. Recreational consumers can only purchase products that have a maximum of 10 mg of THC.
MMJ cardholders are also excluded from the costly excise tax that is tacked on when purchasing marijuana without a medical marijuana card.
Why would I still need a medical marijuana card if I can buy it legally without one?
A huge advantage to having a medical marijuana card is saving money. Likewise, MMJ cardholders are excluded from the costly excise tax (16%) that is tacked on when purchasing marijuana without a medical marijuana card.
Furthermore, another benefit to carrying this card is the protection it offers. Also, while recreational use is permitted in the state, employers can still legally let go of people for medicating with marijuana. This card prevents that issue and gives you peace of mind that your rights are secure.
