Carrying Kannaco CBD topicals in Indiana
What applies depends on how your practice uses Kannaco. Here is each case, with its source.
Bottom line on licensing
Indiana has no license or registration for selling low THC hemp extract products like Kannaco, so none applies to session use, care packages or front-desk sales. Indiana's rules are packaging rules: retail sale is allowed only in packaging that meets IC 24-4-21-4.
Included in a care program or package
✓YesTake-home units in a paid package are a retail sale; IC 24-4-21-3 allows retail sale "only if the packaging complies" with IC 24-4-21-4, which Kannaco's units address. No permit or age rule was found.

Sold at the front desk

Common questions
Could my practice be liable for an Indiana label problem?
IC 24-4-21-5 applies to any person who distributes low THC hemp extract in violation of the chapter. Selling Kannaco units in their original Kannaco packaging, which carries the QR and label lines, keeps the required items in place. Source
