Minor Patient Application Information

A medical marijuana minor patient license allows an individual under the age of 18 to legally possess, use, and grow medical marijuana and medical marijuana products in Oklahoma. A minor patient license holder is not authorized to smoke or vaporize any medical marijuana or medical marijuana products, unless both recommending physicians agree it is medically necessary. Minors are not prohibited from using nebulizers or other aerosolized medical devices. These licenses will be in the form of an identification card. The card will contain the minor patient’s name, photo, date of birth, city and county of residence, the type of license, date of expiration, and the minor patient’s unique medical marijuana license number. 

The online application system will ask for parent/legal guardian information along with the minor’s information. Please note that licensed minor patients cannot enter a dispensary without a parent or legal guardian. 

The name of the parent/legal guardian who signs the minor’s application will be placed on the minor’s temporary patient license so the parent/legal guardian can buy medical marijuana for the minor. 

The caregiver license allows an individual to assist a homebound patient with the purchase, application, and administration of medical marijuana. A caregiver license is available to designated individuals of patients of all ages who are homebound. Only patients who have a physician certification of their medical need for a caregiver may have a licensed caregiver; the status of the applicant as a minor alone does not qualify the applicant for a caregiver. For more information, see  Caregiver Application Information

A minor patient license is valid for two years from the date it is issued (or 60 days from the date it is issued for short-term licenses) or until the patient turns 18, whichever happens first. Additionally, licenses remain valid unless revoked by the recommending physicians or OMMA.
