Your Kentucky medical card authorizes purchases at Kentucky‑licensed dispensaries. Purchasing in another state depends on that state’s rules, and your Kentucky card does not itself grant rights to buy there. For compliance, plan to shop at licensed locations listed as “open” on Kentucky’s official locator and avoid transporting cannabis across state lines. Some states offer limited reciprocity to visitors, but policies change—always verify with official sources before traveling from Covington into Ohio.
Yes—if you grant permission, we can review outside records (visit notes, imaging, medication lists) from Ohio or Kentucky providers to streamline your medical marijuana evaluation in Covington. Coordinated care helps confirm eligibility and tailor dosing guidance for your first purchases.

Where to Buy Medical Cannabis in Covington (When Stores Open)
Covington‑area dispensaries will appear on the state’s official locator with addresses, opening status, and hours once each site completes final steps. Listings typically include accessibility and parking notes so you can plan your visit.
When stores open, bring your Kentucky digital registry ID and a government photo ID. Payment options vary by location (many accept cash and debit), and menus may differ based on supply and delivery schedules. Staff can help align purchases with your practitioner’s guidance and Kentucky’s 10‑day and 30‑day limits.
If a location isn’t yet marked “open,” purchases aren’t available there. Only buy from licensed Kentucky dispensaries, keep items in original packaging during transport, and follow posted patient rules to remain compliant in Covington and across Kenton County.
Cross‑Border Compliance in the Cincy Metro
Living in a river city means you’ll often travel between Kentucky and Ohio. For compliance, plan purchases at Kentucky‑licensed dispensaries listed as “open” on the state locator and follow Kentucky possession rules. When transporting products, keep them in original packaging and observe posted patient rules; do not carry cannabis across state lines.
Out‑of‑state purchasing is governed by each state’s program, and your Kentucky medical card does not automatically authorize purchases elsewhere. If you’re visiting Cincinnati, check that state’s official guidance before you go, and retain receipts in case you’re asked to verify lawful purchase in Kentucky. When driving between jurisdictions, store products out of reach and avoid open‑container‑style issues.
Airports, stadiums, and large venues may have additional restrictions that differ from state program rules. Do not attempt to fly with cannabis; airport security operates under federal law, and policies can result in confiscation or worse. If you’re unsure about a venue’s policy, check ahead or leave products securely at home before crossing the river.
