This statement is referring to the Patient Card for medical marijuana in the state of Colorado. If a minor (under 18 years old) is a registered patient, their card will have a section that designates who is authorized to purchase medical marijuana on their behalf. This person is typically a parent or legal guardian.

In addition to the caregiver, the minor may also have a designated transporter listed on the card. This person is authorized to transport the medical marijuana from the dispensary to the minor’s residence or other approved location.

As for the daily and possession limits, Colorado law states that registered patients (including minors) may purchase and possess up to two ounces of medical marijuana at any given time. However, the daily purchase limit is set at no more than one ounce per day. These limits are outlined in Colorado’s Medical Marijuana Code, specifically in section 12-43.3-902.
