Attention: Pursuant to section 381.986(4)(f), Florida Statutes (F.S.), the Medical Marijuana Use Registry (“Registry”) was updated on August 29, 2022, to implement Emergency Rule 64ER22-8, Dosing and Supply Limits for Medical Marijuana. This emergency rule determines the daily dose amounts and supply limits for approved routes of administration of marijuana (excluding low-THC cannabis).

Section 381.986(4)(f)1., F.S., allows a qualified physician to request an exception to the daily dose amount for their qualified patient by electronically submitting the “Request for Exception” form in the Registry.

Patients must contact their qualified physician to inquire about the Request for Exception process. Certifications created before August 29, 2022, will not require a “Request for Exception” form, unless the physician alters the original order(s).

Please see our instructional guides for step-by-step help with the Request for Exception processes in the Registry.
