The Utah Patients Coalition: Advocates for Utah Cannabis Patients
Meet the Utah Patients Coalition: The Advocates Working Behind the Scenes for Every Medical Cannabis Patient in Utah If you've ever wondered how medical cannabis became legal in Utah in the first place, or why certain patient protections exist — like conditional cards for terminally ill patients, or the option to get a 20-day card for surgical pain — there's a good chance the Utah Patients Coalition (UPC) had a hand in it. Dragonfly is proud to partner with UPC, and we're bringing back our Round

Because vaporization is the primary route of administration for so many Utah patients, Dragonfly didn't just add one vape line — we built an entire ladder of oil products, each with a different philosophy about what's in the cartridge and who it's for. Whether you're brand new to your card or you've been climbing the shelf for years, there's a tier built for exactly where you are.

Introducing DISTI: Three ways to vape, one way to wellness.
Getting started with vaping shouldn't feel like a test. A dispensary menu full of brand names, hardware specs, terpene percentages, and extraction methods can make a new patient's first visit feel overwhelming — especially when all you really want is something simple that works at a price that makes sense. We believe every patient deserves access to quality cannabis — no matter their budget or expertise level. That's the idea behind DISTI, our newest line of vape cartridges.

Pharmacies vs. Dispensaries
Cannabis terminology across the United States varies, reflecting different regulatory environments, cultural values, and local needs. In Utah, where the term "pharmacy" is preferred over "dispensary" for cannabis retail locations, this distinction highlights the state’s unique approach. At Dragonfly Wellness, we prioritize educating our community about Utah’s medical cannabis program and its intentional differences. This post explores the reasons behind the terminology choice, shedding light on the historical, legal, and cultural influences that have shaped this thoughtful preference.

World Sleep Day is March 15th
World Sleep Day, celebrated annually on the Friday before the vernal equinox, serves as a global reminder of the importance of healthy sleep and its impact on overall well-being. This observance underscores the significant challenges faced by millions worldwide who struggle with sleep disturbances, particularly those living with chronic pain conditions.[1,2] The link between chronic pain and sleep disturbances is well-documented, with research indicating a bidirectional relationship between the two.[3,4] Chronic pain not only disrupts sleep patterns, making it difficult to fall and stay asleep, but inadequate sleep can also exacerbate pain symptoms, creating a vicious cycle that negatively affects physical and mental health.

Green Wednesday: A Tradition of Necessity
It’s two hours before Thanksgiving dinner. Your weird uncle is on his way. What do you do? You could start preparing your arguments ahead of time in the shower. That’s where you always have your best thoughts. But having an argument with your family at dinner every year is a war of attrition you don’t want to take part in. Why not relax, medicinally? Just don’t forget that the dispensaries are going to be closed on Thanksgiving. Us industry folk have family to spend time with too after all. It would be wise to make sure you’re stocked up for the day. And now you know why we made Green Wednesday.
Keeping It Real: Synthetic Cannabinoids in Utah
The promise of cheap, legal medicine can be almost too much to pass up, especially if you are genuinely suffering from a condition that requires regular medicating. But what if you found out that the medicine you were being offered had never been safely tested on humans? Furthermore, there is no evidence to prove that anything you’ve been told about the dosing, effects, or even ingredients is true. Unfortunately for Utah patients, there are many “gray market” cannabis and hemp companies utilizing synthetic cannabinoids that are willing to capitalize on the suffering of a person’s medical condition by making lofty promises that their products are “just as good as medical cannabis”. Fortunately for those gray market retailers, the State of Utah seems to turn a blind eye to this lack of consumer protection.
