The card will allow their caregivers to grow and possess Medical Marijuana on their behalf so the patients can consume Marijuana products as prescribed by the doctor. Here’s an overview of the whole process,

1. Get A Doctor’s Recommendation

For a minor to get a Medical Marijuana Card in Oklahoma, the patient will be required to obtain a recommendation from two certified medical doctors. This is to get double-check the Medical Marijuana requirement for the minor. Do note that both recommendations must be within 30 days of one another and not later than that.

2. Apply For An OMMA Patient’s License

Once the patient gets both recommendations, the next step is to fill out the application form available on OMMA’s website. The form usually requires information like the patient’s full name, date of birth, proof of residence, etc along with some additional details required from the caregiver. You can find out about all the details related to the application form through OMMA’s website.
