What are the Qualifying Conditions for Medical Card in Maryland?

At Dispensary Works we can only accept clients who have been evaluated by a medical marijuana doctor and approved as having one of many qualifying conditions for medical card in Maryland. 

Because of this, many potential clients ask us what exactly these qualifying conditions might be. While we are not medical professionals, we have some insight into frequently accepted conditions. Learn more below.

What is a Qualifying Condition?

The Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission (MMCC) defines a qualifying condition as a condition that can be treated using medical marijuana if it is:

  • Severe
  • Is unable to improve through alternative treatments
  • Is expected to improve through medical marijuana therapy

Chronic Pain

One of the most commonly accepted medical conditions are patients suffering from chronic or extreme pain such as from headaches, or joint pain.

Anorexia

Medical marijuana is believed to stimulate appetite for patients suffering from anorexia nervosa.

Cachexia

Cachexia or Wasting Syndrome refers to weight loss that happens as a result of serious conditions such as HIV/AIDS, Crohn’s disease, and more. Medical marijuana may stimulate appetite and help to stabilize the weight of some of these patients.

Seizures

Patients suffering from epilepsy often get approved for a medical marijuana card as it is believed to show a positive effect on areas of the body that may control seizures.

Glaucoma

Medical marijuana is believed to help relieve pressure in the eye which may worsen glaucoma and even impact the vision of patients dealing with this condition.
