| Core Tip |
Cannabis is becoming increasingly popular in the management of a variety of gastrointestinal disorders due to its active role in the endocannabinoid system. It provides anti-inflammatory, anti-emetic and analgesic effects indicating its potential use in treatment and symptom control. There is rising evidence on the therapeutic efficacy and short-term safety profile of cannabis but its long term safety profile remains to be explored. Before gastroenterologists consider prescribing medical marijuana, gaining understanding of the benefits and associated risks and having an open and individualized discussion with patients are essential. |
