The state legislature approved the plan in May, according to the Enquirer. It will go into effect in three months. Ohioans will need a physician`s recommendation to legally use the drug. At first, they`ll have to buy from other states where it`s legal until commercial cultivators have time to set up and grow in Ohio. Only vaporizers, edibles and oils are allowed — smoking marijuana is still illegal.
Only people with certain conditions — like AIDS, cancer, PTSD and epilepsy — can qualify. And Ohioans can still be fired for marijuana use even if they get a doctor`s recommendation.
