Frequently Asked Questions

What is the OMMU Registry?
The Office of Medical Marijuana is the department that manages the Florida medical marijuana program. Sometimes called the OMMU, the medical marijuana use registry, MMURegistry or OMMU: the Office of Medical Marijuana Use Registry is where Florida residents go for Florida state cannabis information:
  • to register for the Florida medical marijuana card (sometimes called a weed card)
  • to find out if you have been approved by the state for medical marijuana
  • re-registering for your medical marijuana card annually
  • check out how many mg you have left on your medical marijuana recommendation.
The Florida OMMU Medical Marijuana Use Registry is the Florida Department of Health system that holds the Florida medical marijuana information. The doctor enters their recommendation into the OMMUR and the dispensaries can view it so you can buy marijuana in Florida.
How Do I Find Out if I'm Approved in Florida?

There are 2 ways to find out if you've obtained OMMU Approval for Florida medical marijuana use.


  1. The state emails you to notify you after your application has been reviewed, they've accepted your payment, and patients been approved. That email can sometimes land in the junk/spam folder and sometimes doesn't arrive at all.
  2. Or, patients can log in to your account at MMU Registry FL Health to check your account.
What do I do after I've found out I'm approved by the Florida OMMU?
Congratulations! You can visit a medical marijuana treatment center (MMTC), which is what Florida calls their dispensaries! The medical marijuana physicians enter the methods of marijuana intake that they approve you for as well as the mg of medical marijuana THC that they feel is appropriate. You can always log in to your registry account to check your medical marijuana status, recommended medical marijuana treatment, and mg's remaining.
How do I Renew Your Florida Medical Marijuana Card?

It's the same process as when you first got your card. Log on to the MMURegistry website and follow the instructions. Also, don't forget that patients have to visit medical marijuana physicians at least every 7 months. Physicians can provide more information on their specific office rules.

The OMMU can help you if you have any issues

Ultimately, even if you are a legal medical marijuana in California, the status of your job after drug testing is up to your employer.
