METAIRIE MEDICAL MARIJUANA PHARMACY UP FOR STATE APPROVAL TUESDAY
A Metairie business could obtain permission Tuesday to operate one of
the state's first medical marijuana pharmacies. The Louisiana Pharmacy
Board is meeting in Baton Rouge for two days to discuss, and possibly
give final approval, to companies seeking to obtain one of the state's
operating permits.
According to the board's agenda, 44 applicants have applied for
permits, although some of those companies have withdrawn from
consideration.
The Rx Greenhouse announced in February its plans to open an office
building at 3131 North Causeway Boulevard in Metairie after gaining
preliminary approval from a state subcommittee. If approved it would
open by September, the pharmacy owners have said.
