The use of cannabis plants or cannabis-derived products for treating specific medical conditions or symptoms under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Unlike recreational cannabis, which is used primarily for its psychoactive effects, medical cannabis is typically used to manage conditions such as chronic pain, anxiety, epilepsy, nausea, and inflammation. Medical cannabis products may contain THC, CBD, or a combination of both, and they are available in various forms like oils, tinctures, edibles, capsules, and vapes.
