There has been a worldwide rise in the incidence of chronic disorders like chemo brain, epilepsy, spasticity due to MS or spinal cord injury, fibromyalgia, glaucoma, and many more. Due to the extensive data showing cannabis to be a useful element in medicines used to treat many disorders, the demand for medicines produced from cannabis has increased. In addition to enhancing quality of life, medical cannabis use reduces opiate drug use and lessens the likelihood of negative effects. An article from the Journal of Pain Home Page reports that in 2016, the number of prescriptions for opioids dropped by 64 percent because of the growing popularity of cannabis-based treatments.
