Renewing Your Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card from Texarkana
Renewing your medical cannabis status in Texarkana is highly efficient with telehealth. The process costs $149.99 for the MMJ.com video consultation, plus a $50 annual fee submitted to the Arkansas Department of Health. This remote option is a significant advantage for shift workers at Cooper Tire and Domtar, allowing them to renew their certification without disrupting their work schedules to visit a hospital clinic.

Arkansas Medical Marijuana Program Rules ($50 ADH Fee, 1-Year Card, No Home Grow)
The Arkansas medical marijuana program is strictly regulated, and recreational cannabis remains entirely illegal. A medical card is valid for exactly one year and requires an annual physician re-certification along with the $50 ADH fee. Patients are limited to purchasing 2.5 ounces of cannabis per rolling 14-day period, a limit that is tracked electronically across the state. Furthermore, home cultivation is illegal, meaning patients must purchase all their medication from licensed dispensaries. To qualify, patients must be diagnosed with one of the 18 state-approved conditions.
Where to Use Your Arkansas Medical Marijuana Card in Texarkana
Texarkana patients have convenient local access to Bloom Medicinals, located on East 9th Street, which provides state-tested medical cannabis products. While the card protects patients under state law, it does not override federal regulations or cross-border rules. Residents who work at the nearby Red River Army Depot are subject to federal drug testing, which strictly prohibits cannabis use. Similarly, commercial drivers operating along the I-30 and I-49 DOT corridors must comply with federal transportation regulations that do not recognize the Arkansas medical marijuana card.
