Medbox, Inc. Addresses Compliance Concerns in the Medical Marijuana Industry
Last update: 3/26/2012 6:45:00 AM
HOLLYWOOD, Calif., March 26, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Medbox, Inc. (pinksheets:MDBX) () responded today to several reports about the medical marijuana industry. Medbox, Inc, through its subsidiary, provides consulting services to legal medical marijuana clinics, as well as a patented dispensing system that alleviates many of the common concerns about dispensaries and provides the highest levels of security, transparency and reporting.
A recent report in the Huffington Post stated that some Northern California medical marijuana clinics were ceasing operations due to pressure from the U.S. Attorney for that district. Risk of robbery was one of the main reasons the U.S. Attorney stated for forcing the closures. "Marijuana dispensaries are full of cash and they're full of marijuana, and everybody knows that," the federal prosecutor stated in an interview. "They are at risk of being robbed."
The Medbox ® system addresses these concerns by replacing the typical over-the-counter method of distribution and eliminating cash from the premises. The unit safely stores all the medicine in a secure steel-walled machine, and accepts credit or prepaid cards only. The system employs four levels of security to assure that the person seeking the medicine has a valid authorization to possess and use the drug and their identity has been verified. In order for a patient to obtain any product, their identity is first verified through both a special ID card and a biometric fingerprint recognition system. The patient is then instantly cross referenced in a secure onsite database to assure that their authorization is valid and that they haven't exceeded their limit on the product. Lastly, a photograph is taken of each patient and stored on a permanent hard drive. Records of each transaction are unalterable and available for review to demonstrate full compliance with all local and state regulations.
"Our system has gained positive feedback amongst city and state officials as well as patients because it takes the alternative medicine clinic out of the backroom and into full compliance with all state regulations," stated Vincent Mehdizadeh, CEO and Founder of Prescription Vending Machines, Inc, a subsidiary of Medbox, Inc. "Not only does our system ensure that only authorized individuals receive the medicine, but it provides an unalterable record of transactions for taxation reporting and transparency."
Other types of cannabis vending machines have sprouted up in recent days, including one in New Zealand that offers no security features whatsoever and allows virtually anyone to purchase marijuana without any verification procedure. Medbox does not condone or endorse these types of systems that attempt to skirt the law and ultimately undermine the legitimacy of the industry as a whole.
The Medbox system provides both security and compliance, allowing clinics to operate legally, legitimately, safely, and with full transparency.
For more information on the company, their products or services, please contact the Medbox Investors Relations Department at (800) 762-1452 or go online to .
About Medbox, Inc:
Medbox is a leader in the development, sales and service of automated, biometrically controlled dispensing and storage systems for medicine and merchandise. Medbox has offices throughout the world, including New York, Tokyo and Toronto, and has their corporate headquarters in Los Angeles.
Medbox provides their patented systems, software and consulting services to pharmacies, urgent care centers, clinics, hospitals, and medical groups worldwide.
Medbox, Inc. is a publicly traded company, and is listed on the OTC Board, ticker symbol MDBX.

Company’s New Line of Hemp-Based, THC-Free Products Highlights Growing Promise of Cannabidiol



Several prominent medical marijuana companies are focusing on what they see as the wave of the future in the MMJ industry: products infused with cannabidiol, or CBD.
The marijuana compound offers some of the pain-relieving benefits of THC, without the psychoactive effects. In other words, you don’t get stoned. Studies show that CBDs can help with a variety of medical conditions, including anxiety, nausea, inflammation and convulsions.
Just as importantly, hemp-based CBDs are legal in the United States, meaning patients don’t need to live in a state with MMJ laws and don’t have to worry about the government knocking on their door.
Dixie Elixirs & Edibles is the latest firm in the medical marijuana industry to jump on the trend. The Denver-based company – which is now part of Medical Marijuana Inc. – is preparing to roll out a new line of hemp-based CBD products including tinctures, salves and capsules. Dixie will officially launch the product line tomorrow and expects to add new CBD offerings at a rapid clip going forward, hoping to tap what it says is a $5 billion market.
The company initially will sell the products to dispensaries but then plans to make them available to the general public via mail order and an online e-commerce platform.
Other MMJ players are taking an interest in cannabidiols as well. Medical Marijuana Inc. has taken an aggressive approach to CBD research, filing a patent last year for a process to extract cannabidiol and other cannabinoids from cannabis. It also inked a deal to distribute CBD-infused beverages. At the same time, individual dispensaries are producing high-CBD strains, and C3 Patients Association is distributing a CBD-infused pill called Idrasil. Most of these products are only available to card-carrying patients in MMJ states, however, as they contain CBDs derived from cannabis and in many cases also contain THC.

Medical Marijuana Inc. Portfolio Company, Red Dice Holdings, Sees Continued Brand Recognition With CO-based Dixie Elixirs

SAN DIEGO, June 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical Marijuana Inc. (Pink Sheets: MJNA)

From excerpts of an article written by the Denver Post:

Smoke 'em if you've got 'em, but Dixie Elixirs & Edibles has a different idea on the best ways to ingest medical marijuana.

The Denver-based firm specializes in the production and distribution of food, beverages and other products infused with the active ingredient of marijuana.

Led by its flagship line of THC-laced sparkling beverages, items also include chocolate truffles, crispy rice treats, fruit lozenges, capsules and droplets. The company's target market is registered medical-marijuana patients who prefer, for health or social reasons, to ingest their drug without smoking.

"If I needed to medicate, I would never consider lighting up in front of my 11-year-old daughter," said Dixie owner and managing director Tripp Keber. "A 70-year-old grandmother with glaucoma (might) never consider smoking but will put a couple of drops of elixir in her soup."

THC-infused edible products now constitute about 38 percent of total sales at dispensaries in Colorado, compared with 12 percent two years ago, according to estimates from Keber that are based on conversations with retailers.

Dixie sells products to 450 of Colorado's 593 medical-marijuana dispensaries.

Colorado law allows local manufacturers to distribute THC-infused items only within the state. But Dixie, already among the largest of Colorado's infused-product makers, is staking out a share of the national medical-marijuana market through a licensing deal that will enable its branded products to be made and sold in other states.

Publicly traded Medical Marijuana Inc. last month paid $1.45 million to acquire Dixie's intellectual property, formulas and recipes. The two companies have created a third, Red Dice Holdings, to license and market Dixie's brand and products in other states.

The firm expects to be selling in Arizona, California and Washington, D.C., before the end of the year.

For a nascent industry that didn't exist 18 years ago and now is legal in only 16 states and the District of Columbia, rapid growth is forecast.

Consulting firm See Change Strategy LLC said in a recent report that national medical-marijuana sales of $1.7 billion in 2011 could grow to $8.9 billion in five years. California and Colorado account for 92 percent of the current market. California leads the nation, with sales of $1.3 billion, according to the report.

Analysts say delivery of medical marijuana through edible and drinkable products is likely to increase in coming years, in part from a growing number of older patients who never have smoked marijuana recreationally.

"For a patient coming in who has never used marijuana before, they might be very open to that kind of (edible) delivery mechanism," said Robert Frichtel, managing partner of Medical Marijuana Business Exchange, a Teller County-based consulting firm. "There is a significant portion of people using marijuana for medical reasons where it's not desirable for them to smoke it."
