This is the substance commonly thought to produce the “high” from cannabis consumption. Q: What is CBD? A: CBD is the acronym for cannabidiol, which also comes from the cannabis plant. This substance is understood to have therapeutic benefits without the “high” effect presumed to be caused by THC. Q: What is consumable hemp? A: Under Texas law, consumable hemp products are foods, drugs, devices or cosmetics that contain hemp or hemp-derived cannabinoids. Consumable hemp products that do not exceed 0.3% of delta-9 THC are legal to be bought, sold, possessed, and used in Texas. These types of products do not require a prescription. Q: What is marijuana? A: Under Texas law, marijuana is the cannabis plant, seeds and all derivatives but does not include hemp or consumable hemp products, so long as the delta-9 THC level does not exceed 0.3%.

The DPS manages an online registry (Compassionate Use Registry of Texas – CURT) of physicians that are authorized to prescribe low THC and patients that have certain approved medical conditions who have been entered into the registry.

A: Yes, a person can be registered in the Texas Compassionate Use Program by a TCUP-registered medical provider as long as the patient qualifies under the qualifying conditions set out under Texas law. Q: Key differences between consumable hemp and medical marijuana.

Once qualified, a patient can contact one of the licensed dispensing organizations to order products and arrange for delivery or pickup of the medical marijuana.

In these instances, a parent/guardian may pick up the low-THC cannabis prescription from the licensed dispensing organization on behalf of the patient.

Possible side effects may include, but are not limited to, increased heart rate, dizziness, impaired concentration and memory, slower reaction times, increased appetite, and mild sedation. There may be some negative interactions with other medications so it is important to let your doctor know of all other medications or supplements being taken.
