Medical marijuana in Massachusetts is legal. Medical cannabis patients in the state of Massachusetts must have one or more of the following debilitating medical conditions to receive a medical marijuana card or renewal recommendation:

What is a “debilitating medical condition”?

As described in the Act, a debilitating medical condition includes “cancer, glaucoma, positive status for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), hepatitis C, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Crohn’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis (when such diseases are debilitating), and other debilitating conditions as determined in writing by a qualifying patient’s certifying physician.”

“Debilitating” is defined in the Regulations as “causing weakness, cachexia, wasting syndrome, intractable pain, or nausea, or impairing strength or ability, and progressing to such an extent that one or more of a patient’s major life activities is substantially limited.”

If a patient has had a diagnosis of a debilitating medical condition in the past, but does not have an active condition (unless the symptoms related to such condition are mitigated by the medical use of marijuana), and is not undergoing treatment for such a condition, the patient is not to be considered to be suffering from a debilitating medical condition.

The maximum amount a patient may possess at one time is a 60-day supply—or up to 10 ounces. A Certifying Health Care Provider may deem a larger quantity is medically necessary.

You must be 18 years or older and a resident of Massachusetts to be eligible for the Massachusetts Medical Use of Marijuana Program. If you are younger than 18 years old, your parent or guardian must approve of your medical cannabis use, and you must have certification by two Certifying Health Care Providers, one of whom must be a pediatrician or pediatric specialist.

Massachusetts Medical Marijuana Card Legislation

Massachusetts passed the Medical Marijuana Ballot Initiative, known as Question 3 in 2012. Question 3 allowed for the creation of the Massachusetts Medical Use of Marijuana Program.

In 2016 voters passed the Massachusetts Marijuana Legalization Initiative, known as Question 4, which legalized marijuana use for adults 21 and older. Question 4 also created the Cannabis Control Commission for regulating marijuana within Massachusetts.

In July 2017, H 3818 was signed by Gov. Charlie Baker which added two more members to the Cannabis Control Commission, while also creating a marijuana excise tax of 10.75% in addition to the state sales tax rate of 6.25%, and also allowing cities to add 3% totaling 20% tax on adult-use marijuana, while medical marijuana is tax free.

Massachusetts Medical Marijuana Card Cultivation & Possession Laws

In Massachusetts, adults 21 or older as well as patients/caregivers are allowed to possess up to 10 ounces of cannabis while inside of their residence, and less than 1 ounce in public. For medical marijuana card patients may possess a 60-day supply of cannabis concentrates while adults can possess up to 1 ounce of concentrates in public or 1.5 ounces at home.

Adults 21 and older can cultivate and grow up to 6 marijuana plants per person, with up to 12 plants per household. Patients who would like to cultivate their own marijuana plants can apply for hardship registration, and if approved can cultivate the number of plants necessary to provide the 60-day supply of cannabis. While possessing cannabis is legal, one can be fined $100 for smoking marijuana in public where tobacco smoking is prohibited, while possessing an open container of cannabis inside of a vehicle can result in a fine of $500.
