Anxiety Leads as Qualifying Condition in Pennsylvania's Medical Marijuana Program

A recent study by the University of Pittsburgh has identified anxiety as the leading qualifying condition among participants in Pennsylvania's medical marijuana program. This finding underscores the significant role that medical cannabis is playing in addressing mental health conditions within the state. The study's insights are particularly relevant as the broader marijuana industry, including companies such as Green Thumb Industries Inc., navigates the challenges posed by federal restrictions on cannabis. The inclusion of anxiety as a qualifying condition reflects a growing recognition of cannabis's potential benefits for mental health, marking a pivotal development in Pennsylvania's medical marijuana program.
