Medical Marijuana Inches Closer to Beat Viagra

Seems like Marijuana is taking a medical form to stock up its sales and popularity. It’s a good way to become legal as well, well atleast for those who want to boost the performance of their senses. So now we guess that Viagra maybe facing some stiff competition from this heady plant medicine.

The fascination for marijuana has grown manifold ever since its medical version was introduced. Now people would get a taste of it legally and because of this fact, its sales have reached a whopping $1.7 billion in no time. Compare this to the annual sales of Viagra which is around $1.9 billion and we have a lip smacking clash of the titans, a battle of the drugs indeed. It has been said that in around 5 years time, the sales of the medical marijuana will reach around $8.9 billion, which is just amazing as this drug has been prescribed for various medical problems in many states of the US.

Although under the federal law, the sale of this medical form is prohibited, it remains to be seen as to what will be the future actions of the federal government regarding this drug. If people are being benefited from it and if its side effects are mild and harmless, then medical marijuana should be legalized in all the states.

Judging by its current sales and popularity, it might be likely that this medicine might just beat the blockbuster drug that is Viagra. Well, only time will tell.
