How to Get a Medical Marijuana Card in Texas

Book An Appointment

Schedule your appointment with DocMJ on a day and time that is convenient for you. This is a no-risk appointment, we provide a 100% money-back guarantee if you do not qualify.

Meet With a Doctor

The State of Texas requires that all patients visit a doctor via telemedicine to complete the health evaluation. A friendly DocMJ doctor will consult with you and talk about your symptoms, medications, and wellness goals. This is an excellent opportunity to learn how medical marijuana can improve your life.

Get Approved

When approved, you will receive a copy of your prescription for medical marijuana via email within 24 hours of the appointment. The physician will enter the prescription into the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas, CURT. Prescriptions are entered into the registry on the same day. Patients are usually able to purchase medication the same day, following their appointment.

Texas Medical Marijuana History


The Texas Compassionate Use Program (CUP) initially allowed only patients with intractable epilepsy to receive low-THC medical marijuana. Over the years, the program has expanded to include multiple conditions, such as PTSD, ALS, and cancer. Access to medical cannabis in Texas is improving due to evolving laws and increased patient awareness.

Definition of Medical Marijuana in Texas


Medical marijuana in Texas refers to cannabis-based products with a THC concentration of up to 1%. Patients can obtain oils, tinctures, capsules, lozenges, and topicals but cannot legally smoke whole-plant cannabis. The state’s Compassionate Use Program regulates access to these products to ensure compliance with Texas laws.

Requirements for Medical Marijuana in TX


To qualify for medical marijuana in Texas, you must be:

  • A permanent resident of the state. A valid Texas driver’s license or state-issued ID is required to verify residency.

  • Patients must have one of the specific medical conditions approved under the Texas Compassionate Use Program to be eligible for medical marijuana.

  • A prescription from a provider who is registered with the Compassionate Use Program is mandatory for obtaining medical marijuana.

  • While there is no age limit for medical marijuana prescriptions in Texas, patients under 18 require consent from a parent or legal guardian. 


These provisions ensure that medical marijuana is prescribed and used in compliance with Texas state laws.

Purchasing Medical Marijuana in the State of Texas


After receiving a prescription, patients can visit licensed dispensaries in Texas to purchase medical marijuana. Dispensaries will verify patient eligibility using CURT registration and state-issued ID. Available products include low-THC oils, tinctures, capsules, lozenges, and topicals.

Renewing Your Texas Medical Marijuana Prescription


Texas medical marijuana prescriptions are valid for 12 months and must be renewed annually. To renew, schedule a telemedicine appointment with a CUP-registered physician for evaluation. If approved, your prescription will be updated in the CURT —no physical card is required.

Start renewing at least 30 days before expiration to ensure uninterrupted dispensary access.

Book a Telemedicine Appointment


Skip the hassle of in-person visits. Texas residents can book a telemedicine appointment with DocMJ to receive a medical marijuana prescription from the comfort of their homes. Our expert physicians will assess your condition and guide you through the process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We’ve got answers!
Here are some common questions we receive about medical marijuana in Texas:

How long does the approval process take?

If you qualify, prescriptions are typically approved the same day as your telemedicine appointment. Once entered into the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas (CURT), you can purchase medical marijuana immediately.

Can I travel with my medical marijuana within Texas?

Yes, but your medical marijuana must remain in its original packaging from a licensed dispensary. Since Texas only permits low-THC cannabis, transporting whole-plant marijuana remains illegal.

What types of medical marijuana products are available in Texas?

Texas law allows low-THC products (no more than 1% THC), including oils, tinctures, lozenges, capsules, and topicals. Smoking cannabis is not permitted.

Can I use my Texas medical marijuana prescription in another state?

No. Texas does not participate in medical marijuana reciprocity, meaning your prescription is only valid within the state and cannot be used to purchase cannabis in other states.

Can employers penalize me for using medical marijuana in Texas?

Yes. Texas does not have workplace protections for medical marijuana users, meaning employers can enforce drug-free workplace policies, even if you have a valid prescription.

Does insurance cover medical marijuana in Texas?

No. Because marijuana is still federally illegal, insurance companies do not cover medical cannabis in Texas. All prescriptions must be paid out-of-pocket.

Can I grow my own medical marijuana in Texas?

No. Home cultivation of marijuana is illegal in Texas, even for medical use. All medical cannabis must be obtained from state-licensed dispensaries.

How much medical marijuana can I buy at one time?

Texas law does not set a specific purchase limit. Your physician determines the appropriate dosage and enters it into the CURT system. Dispensaries dispense medical cannabis according to your prescription.

Can I get a DUI for using medical marijuana in Texas?

Yes. Driving under the influence of marijuana is illegal, even if you have a medical prescription. Texas law treats marijuana DUIs similarly to alcohol-related DUIs.

Can medical marijuana patients own a firearm in Texas?

Federal law prohibits firearm ownership for individuals who use any form of marijuana, even if prescribed legally in Texas. While Texas does not enforce firearm restrictions for medical marijuana users, purchasing a firearm may violate federal regulations.
