    Default Louisiana lifts limit on patients who can access medical marijuana

    https://www.nola.com/health/index.ss...marijuana.html

    State regulators on Monday (Sept. 17) got rid of a rule that limited the number of patients Louisiana doctors can recommend medical marijuana to.

    The Louisiana Board of Medical Examiners met Monday to consider changing several rules that currently place restrictions on patient access to medical marijuana. That included a patient limit rule that prevented Louisiana doctors licensed under the state's medical marijuana program from recommending the drug to more than 100 people at a time.

    In addition to lifting the patient cap, the board agreed to remove a restriction that would have required patients to see their doctor every 90 days in order to renew their order for medical cannabis.


    Dr. Victor Chou, one of the first doctors in Louisiana to receive a license to recommend medical marijuana, told the board he met the patient cap just two weeks after opening his clinic in Baton Rouge.

    "I have a waiting list of 700 patients," he said.

    Good but also shame on anyone that fakes a legitimate illness or problem to get a bud card. Or sells it. No matter how incredibly lucrative it may be.

    Medical marijuana is fantastic but I'd never get a card as long as doing so disallows you from owning firearms.

    For me it's work. As long as it's illegal at a federal level and a schedule I narcotic it'll be a hard pass for me. The gf is super psyched though.

    Fun fact: LSU is also a contracted grower. They're incorporating horticulture programs to grow for the dispensaries.

    It's no different than people who do the same thing for pain pills. Except for pain pills being 874320947230472809x worse.

    I never understood the reasoning behind this. That's like saying if you buy beer you have to turn in your guns.

    Unlike alcohol marijuana makes people very very violent.
