State Health Secretary Karen Murphy said Wednesday that children with serious medical conditions will have first access to legal medical marijuana in Pennsylvania, possibly as soon as next month.
The regulations to be issued in July will spell out how they can obtain ID cards so they can purchase marijuana from dispensaries in other states without going against the current Pennsylvania law.
The medical marijuana law enacted in April after half-dozen years of legislative debate allows use for patients certified by a doctor with a range of conditions, including cancer, multiple sclerosis and epilepsy, among others.
The law has numerous provisions to control and regulate medical marijuana from the growing stage to its legal use as an oil, pill or liquid.
