Marijuana Card Guide
To get a Davenport Cannabis Card, Iowa’s medical cannabidiol registration card, you need a written certification from the Iowa-licensed practitioner who has examined and treated you and is your primary care provider for the condition. The state card costs $100, or $25 with proof of SSI, SSDI, Medicaid or veteran status, and you renew it every year. This page walks through each step. For the statewide steps Iowa HHS sets, see our Iowa medical cannabidiol card guide.
After certification, Davenport patients have 60 days from the date the practitioner signs the form to apply online with Iowa HHS.

HOW IOWA MEDICAL
CANNABIDIOL CERTIFICATION
WORKS IN DAVENPORT
Davenport patients follow the same rules as everyone in Iowa: medical cannabidiol is governed by Iowa’s Medical Cannabidiol Act (Iowa Code chapter 124E), and Iowa HHS runs the program. Patients apply to HHS online after certification. HHS lists five licensed dispensaries statewide, none of them in Davenport. The chapter does not require an employer to permit or accommodate marijuana use in the workplace, so Davenport workers should check their workplace policy first. Program questions go to Iowa HHS at 1-877-214-9313.
Iowa’s qualifying conditions include multiple sclerosis with severe and persistent muscle spasms, seizures, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, chronic pain, HIV or AIDS, ALS, Parkinson’s disease, PTSD, corticobasal degeneration, severe, intractable autism with self-injurious or aggressive behaviors, and cancer or a terminal illness (life expectancy under one year) with severe or chronic pain, nausea or severe vomiting, or severe wasting. Davenport medical marijuana patients renew every year: the card expires one year after issue, and each renewal needs a new certification. The card page lists all 14 conditions on the HHS list.

Dispensaries sell products from Iowa’s two licensed manufacturers, and raw flower that can be smoked is not allowed.
