The "Medical Marijuana - Competitive Intelligence Analysis, 2019" report provides comprehensive insights into growth prospects in the Medical Marijuana industry. A detailed picture of the competitive landscape is provided with complete analysis of companies, patents, pipeline products, competitive benchmarking and therapeutic assessment of clinical products.

The fast development of cannabis and its expanding appropriation over the therapeutic application has grabbed the eye of a large group of industry verticals running from pharmaceuticals in addition to advisory and consultancy administrations. While cannabis cultivators and producers are the most critical piece of the cannabis ecosystem, revenue comes significantly from pharmaceutical organizations. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not recognized or approved the marijuana plant as medicine. However, the scientific study of the chemicals in marijuana, called cannabinoids, has led to some FDA-approved medications that contain cannabinoid chemicals in pill form. Continued research may lead to the approval of more medications.
