Cannabis for Medical Use: Versatile Plant Rather Than a Single Drug

Key Findings:  This extensive analysis of the wide range of physiologic effects of different phytocannabinoid owing to the plant strains, chemical composition, metabolites, and endocannabinoid targets. The hundreds of other variations of the plant determine its medicinal potential as well as its adverse effect profile. Overall phytocannabinoids have been deemed safe and effective for many conditions, but the variations make predicting these effects more challenging.
