Medical Marijuana in Dayton

Dayton's medical marijuana program serves a region defined by aerospace, military, and manufacturing. Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the area's largest employer, creates unique considerations for patients—federal employees and contractors face strict drug policies regardless of state law. However, Dayton's non-military population has embraced medical cannabis, with Montgomery County enrolling over 18,000 patients. The Premier Health and Kettering Health networks have gradually accepted cannabis as a treatment option, particularly for chronic conditions common in the region's aging population. Dayton dispensaries serve the greater Miami Valley, including suburbs like Kettering, Beavercreek, and Huber Heights.

For Dayton residents, having a medical card provides significant advantages over recreational purchase, including 10% tax savings, higher possession limits, and access to patient-only hours.
