A Maryland patient registration is valid for **6 years** from the date of state issuance. However, under state law, **patients must complete an annual physician recertification** to keep their medical status active at the dispensary. Your registration profile remains linked to your account for 6 years, but you must complete a brief doctor check-in every 12 months to maintain purchasing rights.

The standard statutory medical allotment allows a patient to purchase up to **120 grams of dried flower OR 36 grams of total THC in processed/infused products** per rolling 30-day period. This is a combined limit tracked dynamically by the state's central system. If a provider determines your condition requires a higher dosage, they can submit a specialized waiver to increase your monthly limit.

While adult-use recreational cannabis is legal for individuals 21 and older, holding a valid Maryland medical certification offers explicit privileges including a **12% tax exemption**. Medical patients pay 0% cannabis tax at checkout, saving 12% on every single purchase. Medical cardholders can legally grow up to 4 plants at home, whereas recreational users are strictly limited to 2 plants.
