Medical marijuana for minors in Ohio
Minors can be registered patients, but vaping is not allowed for patients under 18. The official pages reviewed do not explain the steps for minors, so ask the recommending physician.
How the process differs for patients under 18
Minor patients almost always need a parent or legal guardian registered as their caregiver, and some states require more than one physician's certification. The guardian handles purchases.
