Market Highlights
Marijuana consists of chemical components cannabinoids, which can be used as medicine to treat the symptoms caused by illness. Medical marijuana plant or extract of the plant is used for the treatment. The increasing number of chronic diseases, rising acceptance of medical marijuana in healthcare and increasing research and development activities are the major factors driving the growth of the global medical marijuana market. Additionally, increasing U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals for drugs containing cannabinoids are contributing to the growth of the market. For instance, in June 2018, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Epidiolex (cannabidiol) [CBD] oral solution for the treatment of epilepsy.
The stringent regulatory environment for product approval, increasing use of marijuana for recreational use and side effects caused by long-term use of marijuana are likely to hinder market growth during the forecast period.
