ToggleMMJ patients in Missouri have a purchase limit of four ounces of cannabis per 30 days – known as the medical marijuana allotment in Missouri.
For some cannabis consumers in the state, a few ounces of medical cannabis every 30 days simply isn’t enough. So how can Missouri residents purchase more weed? How can you increase your Missouri allotment?
For a higher MMJ purchase limit, Missouri patients will need Missouri’s 8-ounce allotment increase. We can help with that.
Elevate Holistics’ goal is to make MMJ easily accessible for patients, allowing them to obtain the amount of medicine they need. With us, getting an 8-ounce allotment increase – or up to 16-ounce if deemed medically necessary – is easier than ever.
What’s the Medical Marijuana Allotment in Missouri?
First, what is the current Missouri allotment for medical cannabis?
The standard medical marijuana allotment in Missouri is capped at four ounces every 30 days. The Show-Me state measures cannabis using MMEs: Missouri Marijuana Equivalency units. The standard Missouri allotment equals 32 MMEs, or 112 grams of cannabis, per 30 days.
Missouri’s cannabis measurements are as follows:
- 3.5 grams of marijuana = 1 MME
- 1 gram of cannabis concentrate = 1 MME
- 100 mg. THC-infused product = 1 MME
It’s important to note that your allotment does not refresh at the beginning of each month. Instead, your thirty-day period begins with a purchase from the dispensary. After 30 days, the amount you purchased is added back to your allotment.
Don’t worry about accidentally over-purchasing – Missouri dispensaries track your purchase amounts with the state’s tracking system, METRC.
Are four ounces of medical cannabis per 30 days not doing it for you? How can Missouri MMJ patients increase their monthly MMEs?
Requirements for Missouri’s 8-Ounce Allotment
Patients who require more than four ounces of MMJ per 30 days can request that the state increase their Missouri allotment to eight – or even up to 16 – ounces.
To get a Missouri allotment increase, you must attend two separate MMJ doctor’s appointments for two medical cannabis recommendations. For the state to accept your Missouri allotment increase, the recommendations must be for the same condition.
Who Needs an Increased Missouri Allotment?
If you’ve found yourself nearing your limit one too many times, Missouri’s 8-ounce allotment may be the right choice for you.
Most patients who need the increased allotment have severe, chronic medical conditions that require higher potency medical cannabis products — and more of them.
