What forms of medical marijuana are available in Amarillo?

- Low-THC oils: Take these by mouth with a dropper or mix into food. Each dose caps at 10mg THC.
- Capsules: Swallow these like regular pills for consistent, measured dosing every time.
- Tinctures: Place liquid drops under your tongue for quicker absorption than capsules or edibles.

Can my employer or landlord find out about my medical marijuana card? Can it show up on a background check?
What happens to my Second Amendment gun rights in TX if I register for a medical cannabis card with the state database?
Texas doesn’t maintain a state registry for medical cannabis patients. Your prescription stays between you and your doctor. No government database tracks who has a medical cannabis card, so background checks for firearms won’t pull up your prescription. Here’s what you need to know about federal law and your rights.
- Texas keeps no patient registry: Your medical cannabis prescription isn’t reported to any state database. Dispensaries verify your eligibility directly through your physician.
- Federal law creates complications: Form 4473 asks if you use controlled substances, and cannabis remains federally illegal. The ATF considers medical cannabis users prohibited from purchasing firearms under federal law.
- You control your medical decisions: Some patients choose to stop using cannabis before buying firearms. Others consult attorneys about their specific situation. Texas won’t report your prescription, but federal restrictions still apply regardless of state medical programs.
