Texas Medical Marijuana Doctors via Telehealth: Complete Guide
Texas Medical Marijuana Doctors Online: Get Certified via Telehealth
Important: Texas operates a medical cannabis program called the Compassionate Use Program (CUP). Under 2025 HB 46, the restrictive 1% weight cap has been completely eliminated. Patients can now access high-potency products capped at 10 mg of THC per dose and up to 1,000 mg per package. MMJ.com connects you with Texas-licensed, CURT-registered physicians who can evaluate you for this specialized program through secure telehealth consultations.
Understanding the Texas Compassionate Use Program (CUP)
Texas does NOT have a traditional medical marijuana program. The Compassionate Use Program, established in 2015 and expanded in 2021, provides access to low-THC cannabis for patients with specific qualifying conditions.
Key Differences from Traditional MMJ Programs:
- New High-Potency Limits: Up to 1,000 mg of THC per package. Gummies, Tinctures, Topicals, & Vaporizers Available!
- Prescription Model: Doctors write prescriptions through CURT, not recommendations
- Expanded Conditions: Chronic Pain, TBI, & Crohn's Disease Now Approved!
- CURT Registration: Physicians must complete CURT registration and training
- No Card System: Patients receive prescriptions, not physical MMJ cards
- Dispensary Limits: Only a few licensed dispensing organizations statewide
Understanding CURT (Compassionate Use Registry of Texas)
CURT is Texas's electronic prescription tracking system for low-THC cannabis. Here's how it works:
For Patients:
- Your physician enters your prescription directly into CURT
- Dispensaries verify your prescription through CURT before dispensing
- Your prescription history is tracked in the system
- No physical card is issued - your prescription is your authorization
For Physicians:
- Must register with CURT before prescribing
- Enter all prescriptions electronically
- Specify condition, dosing recommendations, and duration
- Renew prescriptions as needed
