Ohioans could buy limited amount of medical marijuana every 90 days, under draft
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio patients would be able to buy 6 ounces of medical marijuana for vaporization during a 90-day period under draft rules released Thursday, a smaller amount than what's allowed in most other legal states.

State law limits patients to a 90-day supply but doesn't define how much that is.
The State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy has proposed different amounts depending on the form:
- Patients would be limited to 4 ounces of plant material with higher THC levels -- above 23 percent -- in a 90-day supply. State officials said Ohio would be the first state to limit legal supply by the level of THC, a compound in marijuana that generates a high.
- Patients would be limited to buying the equivalent of 40.5 grams of THC in vaping oils, 19.8 grams of THC in transdermal patches and 9 grams of THC in edibles, oils and tinctures taken orally.
