Is CBD legal in Ohio?
Status: Legal
CBD is a non-psychoactive compound found in cannabis and hemp, known for its health benefits. The number of patients who use CBD products is growing. Some of them may ask questions such as “Is CBD Hemp Oil legal in Ohio?” and “How to get CBD in Ohio?”.
The key to understanding the legal status of CBD is to know its source. CBD can be derived from marijuana or hemp. Both are the varieties of the cannabis plant. The thing that makes the difference is the levels of THC.
THC is the compound of the plant known for its psychoactive properties - it gives users a “high” effect. While CBD derived from marijuana is rich in THC, CBD Hemp Oil has only a trace amount of this chemical component, usually below 0.3%.
In Ohio CBD Hemp Oil is allowed to be sold. In fact, under the Farm Bill it is legal across America to use, possess, and sell hemp products.
CBD Cannabis (marijuana) Oil can be sold only in state dispensaries, to patients with a marijuana ID card.
