Medical Marijuana Is Now Being Sold In Ohio

Ohioans who have been waiting to get medical marijuana in Ohio don't have to wait any longer.  

The Ohio State Board of Pharmacy’s Ali Simon says there haven’t been any big problems at the four medical marijuana dispensaries. She says there has been a small increase in the number of toll free calls to the hotline set up to help patients. There are two dispensaries in Wintersville, one in Canton and one in Sandusky. More are expected to open in the coming weeks. Simon says the agency will have a report on first day sales at some point Thursday.
