Are there specific storage requirements for medical marijuana products?

Yes, Virginia has specific storage requirements for medical marijuana products. Medical marijuana products must be stored in a secured area in a container that is specifically labeled with the name of the medication or product and the name of the patient. The container must be child-resistant and must not be accessible to anyone other than the patient or the patient’s parent/guardian. The container must remain locked and secure while in the patient’s possession. Additionally, the container must be always stored in a dry and secure area, away from any sources of heat, cold, light or humidity. The container must also be stored in a location that is away from any individuals under the age of 18. Furthermore, only one form of medical marijuana product dispensing is permitted at the same time. For example, if a patient is prescribed tablets, then products such as capsules or lozenges may not be stored in the same container and vice versa. Additionally, medical marijuana products may not be stored in locations where food is prepared, served or stored. Lastly, it is very important to keep all medical marijuana products in their original packaging and to keep the packaging and any associated instructions in a secure area.
