Access to Texas Medical Marijuana: Could You Qualify?

Qualifying for the state’s medical marijuana program may be easier than you think

Unknown to many Texans, the medical marijuana program in the state may provide a glimmer of hope for those seeking alternative treatments. Surprisingly, the current list of approved conditions suggests that approximately 5 million Texans could potentially qualify for the Texas Compassionate Use Program.

The Texas Compassionate Use Program

Let's delve into the details of the Texas Compassionate Use Program (TCUP). This program allows licensed physicians to prescribe medical marijuana to patients diagnosed with specific qualifying conditions. Only a little over 55,000 Texans have ever ventured to get a prescription, largely due to the program's lack of awareness and the confusion that arises between state-regulated medical marijuana products and those derived from hemp.

For those with conditions such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), muscle spasticity, neuropathic pain, cancer, autism, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease, or similar neurodegenerative conditions, joining the TCUP grants them access to medical marijuana as a potential alternative to pharmaceuticals.

How to get your ‘card’

Unlike other states that issue specialized "medical cards," Texas has a simpler approach—patients need only obtain a prescription. The first step is to consult one of the 716 prescribing physicians in the state. goodblend, a prominent medical marijuana dispensary in Texas, has streamlined this process by connecting prospective patients with the most affordable prescription options available.

Many doctors also offer a money-back guarantee, so that if you don’t qualify for the program, you don’t pay! Visit goodblend’s website to make an appointment with a TeleMed Clinic at tx.goodblend.com/clinic
