Are there any limits on the advertising of medical marijuana products?

Yes, there are limits on the advertising of medical marijuana products in California. Medical marijuana advertising must comply with state and local regulations. Advertising is generally prohibited wherever tobacco, alcohol, or marijuana products are prohibited, including near schools, playgrounds, parks, and other places frequented by minors. Advertising cannot be false or misleading or promote the use of marijuana by minors. In addition, medical marijuana advertisements cannot be obscene or depict extreme violence, and must include a statement that marijuana is not a medical treatment and the product is not approved by the FDA. Advertising is also restricted in how it can be done. Any advertisement must be on static, non-moving media such as posters or billboards that are at least 1,000 feet away from a school. Ads cannot be placed on radio, television, the internet, magazines, or newspapers without a permit, and outdoor advertisements must be posted in accordance with local regulations. Health and safety warning labels, including those related to the potential effects of marijuana use, must be included in medical marijuana product advertising. The warning must be prominent and placed in close proximity to the advertisement. Medical marijuana products can not be advertised for any purpose other than for sale or transfer of medical marijuana products, and can not contain any reference to recreational use or in any way normalize recreational use. Violations of these rules can result in fines and other penalties.
