Rules reversed on medical marijuana

OKLAHOMA CITY — The Oklahoma State Department of Health posted the new rules on Friday.

The original rules approved by the board earlier this month sparked outrage from medical marijuana supporters who said they went too far.

The board approved last-minute changes to ban the sale of smokable pot and require a pharmacist in every dispensary.

The rules also required female patients seeking a license to undergo a pregnancy test first.

All of that language is deleted from the new rules.

The agency's board is expected to consider them at a special meeting on Wednesday.
