Despite the sweeping legalization and acceptance of cannabis, patients and consumers are still facing obstacles when it comes to accessibility. This includes the fact that you cannot buy THC oil online at this time.
The good news: Mary is here to walk you through your options so that you can confidently find the products that you need.
What’s the Status of Legalization?
One of at least 113 cannabinoids identified in the cannabis plant, THC is the principal psychoactive constituent of cannabis. In other words, it produces the traditional ‘high’ associated with cannabis.
In 2012, Colorado voters approved an amendment legalizing recreational marijuana use. At the time this made it one of two states to end cannabis prohibition. Now, 33 states and the District of Columbia currently have passed laws broadly legalizing marijuana, either for medicinal purposes or simply for adult use.
The barriers are being removed and access is increasing. However, buying THC-infused products isn’t simple. Federal law prohibits manufacturers to ship products across state lines, making it impossible to buy THC oil online, or any of its products.
Where Can You Buy THC?
So, where to buy THC oil? THC infused products can only be purchased through licensed dispensaries in states where medical or adult use cannabis is legal. The District of Columbia, Alaska, California, Colorado, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington have adopted the most extensive laws legalizing marijuana for adult use. Generally speaking, adult use means that anyone over 21 years old can enter a dispensary and make a purchase.
In states such as Florida, where cannabis has been legalized for medical use, THC and other cannabinoid-infused products are only available to those with qualifying medical conditions. These individuals must have obtained medical authorization to buy THC products. More than 300,000 Florida residents have qualified for a medical marijuana card since the state legalized.
What Can I Expect When I Visit a Dispensary?
When it comes to the in-dispensary shopping experience, medical and retail dispensaries offer similar experiences.
In a medical dispensary, qualified medical marijuana patients typically have to present required verifications. Patients bring both their ID to prove they’re legally old enough to purchase cannabis, as well as their valid medical marijuana card. In a retail dispensary, a valid ID proving you are legally old enough to purchase cannabis is the usually the only item you need to gain entry.

All of Mary’s products are developed based on a set of key pillars. These include: accurate dosing, convenient use, clinical-grade delivery, industry-leading accountability, and a patient-first mentality. We offer a wide range of delivery methods because cannabis is not a one-size-fits-all solution.
Clean Delivery Methods
As the developer of the first transdermal cannabis patch, we believe in the effectiveness of clean delivery methods. There’s a wide array of benefits of transdermal and topical applications such as the elimination of smoking and bypassing first-pass metabolism (from oral administration). Additional benefits include dose control, continued release, convenience, ease of use and systemic effects.
Mary’s award-winning transdermal patches are discreet 2”×2” squares that simply adhere to any venous part of the skin for 8-12 hours of consistent systemic delivery. The patches are available in CBD, 1:1 CBD:THC, CBN, THCa, Indica and Sativa.
We also offer a variety of cannabinoid-infused tinctures, capsules, and inhalables. A long-standing customer favorite is the Compound. It is a spot-specific balm formulated to allow for much deeper penetration than traditional cannabis topicals. This product features a 100mg blend of THC and CBD.
Free of synthetic additives, our highly concentrated THC tincture is made with high-quality, full-spectrum THC extract. Our THC tincture comes in a lemon-lime flavor, too! Sublingual delivery of THC is easy to use, discreet and convenient. This product is only available in Michigan and California.
