Global Medical Cannabis Market Drivers:

Cannabis is safer and has less severe side effects in comparison to other treatment options. It also finds usage along with other treatments either to enhance their effect or to combat negative side effects. For instance, cannabis is very effective in reducing nausea and increasing appetite among the chemotherapy patients, making the agonizing treatment more tolerable. Similarly, it is also used in combination with traditional opioid painkillers, which enables patients to significantly reduce the dosage and frequency of opioids, and also imparts greater pain relief.

Another major driver of this market is the development of edible cannabis products. This allows medical cannabis to take the form of food, extracts and oils, and range from marijuana-infused mints and candies to baked goods and beverages, among many other products. This allows a more convenient and familiar product to consumers.

A steadily rising ageing population has also played an significant role in driving the demand for medical cannabis as geriatric patients are more likely to develop chronic illnesses and require more physician visits.

Clinical trials, R&D activities and commercialization of cannabis-based indications are further expected to catalyze the growth of the market.

Although expenditure on health products are less susceptible to fluctuations in consumer’s expenditure, the uptake of medical marijuana is liable to changes in disposable income due to its unconventional nature.
