South Carolina’s medical CBD law, the Medical Cannabis Therapeutic Treatment Act, or “Julian’s Law,” was passed in 2014 (SB 1035). The law allows CBD products with at least 98% CBD and 0.9% or less THC to be prescribed for patients with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, Dravet Syndrome, and other severe forms of epilepsy. The state also has an industrial hemp pilot program. Recreational marijuana is illegal in South Carolina.
