Missouri's Department of Health and Senior Services announced Saturday, Sept. 26th, that the first medical marijuana testing facility has passed its commencement inspection.
DHSS spokeswoman Lisa Cox said, "We are really close. Waiting on the testing labs to get through inspection is one of the last barriers between dispensaries actually getting product out to patients.”
With cultivation, dispensary, and testing facilities now operational, medical marijuana will soon be available to Missouri patients.
Cox said the first testing lab to go through the state inspection process was EKG Labs in St. Louis.
