The Medical Cannabis market includes cannabinoid-based medicine, either licensed or unlicensed (not holding marketing authorization), which is supplied through the healthcare system and prescribed by a doctor with the primary focus of mitigating serious disease symptoms. It can include higher tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) levels of cannabidiol (CBD).

Cannabis-based medical products are already used when encountering a variety of symptoms and illnesses such as chronic pain, nausea and seizures, to name a few.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Epidiolex in 2018 as the first product with a purified form of CBD. A drug approval by a medical authority ensures safety and effectiveness for both patient and doctor, increasing the probability of prescription greatly.

Depending on the country, different medical products are approved though. An example for different approval status between countrys is Sativex, which is already approved in several countries including Germany, United Kingdom and Canada, but it is not yet approved in the United States as of 2022. Furthermore, there are still countries, where the usage of medical cannabis is not allowed.

With ongoing product development, investments, and Mergers & Acquisitions, the field of use can still be expanded. A current example (2021) for the willingness to invest in clinical trials and approved medical products is Jazz Pharmaceuticals acquiring GW Pharmaceuticals, who is the manufacturer of Epidiolex and Sativex.

For the future, we expect an increase in usage and product diversity of cannabis-based medical drugs, thus providing more proof of the effectiveness. This will allow more countries to legalize medical cannabis and ease the process of approval from medical authorities, strengthening the supply and demand of cannabis-based medical products.

Cannabis or marijuana, the psychoactive drug from the cannabis plant is growing in popularity around the globe, both for recreational and medicinal uses. While there are many countries that have legalized cannabis in some capacity for medical purposes, only a handful have done so for recreational use. Even though cannabis is not federally legal in the United States, the combined legal states represent the largest market in the world. After the U.S., Canada, which legalized cannabis nation-wide in 2018 represents the next largest market. In 2021, a new coalition government was formed in Germany that indicated that the legalization of cannabis was on their agenda. Germany would be the largest legal adult-use market in Europe and would act as a test case for other countries on the continent considering the merits of legalization.
