The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority, OMMA, sets specific limits for each of these categories and products that exceed these limits cannot be sold to patients.

Testing labs must provide detailed reports to medical marijuana businesses and the OMMA, including information about the product’s potency, contaminants, and other factors.
