The product will solely be on sale to those with medical permission to take the drug.

The Hollywood star said"For me, I feel like if you don't want to get high, this is specifically to get rid of discomfort."Smoking a joint is fine, but most people can't smoke a joint and go to work."

She added: "You can put the rub on your lower stomach and lower back at work, and then when you get home you can get in the tub for a soak or make tea, and it allows you to continue to work throughout the day."

Whoopi, 60, is not the first high-profile figure to launch business ventures related to marijuana.

Rapper Snoop Dogg launched 'Leafs by Snoop', his own brand of marijuana, in November 2015, after the drug was decriminalised in a number of states.
