Enfoque terapéutico con Cannabis medicinal para el tratamiento de la sintomatología desagradable en pacientes con situaciones complejas de salud

Resumen

The use of medicinal cannabis has been proposed as part of a strategy for managing unpleasant symptoms such as chronic pain, considering it a more effective alternative for people. Medical cannabis users make these decisions, apparently, due to a perception of greater relief in their complex health situations with respect to conventional drugs in order to advance in the study of the substitution of opioids for medical cannabis. In the US, it has been shown that the mortality figures in patients have been due to the use of opioids. For this reason, non-pharmacological treatments are very useful; Despite this, the lack of research is emphasized to demonstrate the positive effects they can have on the symptoms that occur most frequently, such as pain, nausea, dyspnea, fatigue and constipation. This is why many users have chosen to resort to alternative therapies with cannabinoids, since it has been shown that they manage to block the receptors responsible for the pain response.
