Ethnobotanical survey - on the therapeutic uses of cannabis in the Taounate region of Morocco

The aim of this study is to gather data on the medicinal use of cannabis in the Taounate-Morocco region. Cannabis is a plant that has long been prohibited in Morocco due to its psychotropic effects. However, in June 2021, a new law authorized its use for medicinal purposes. As a result, a month-long survey was carried out, during which several uses were cited. Among them, use against "cham" infant disorders was most often mentioned, followed by diabetes, injuries, pain, anxiety, and many others detailed in the document.
