  • Prohibition Partners’ global surveys of cannabis users indicates that around 40% of users have some medical component to their usage.
  • The current global spend on pain medications worldwide is estimated at US$63-85 billion each year. However, no single cannabinoid drug has received widespread approval in the treatment of pain.
