L’objectif
The therapeutic benefits of cannabinoids remain unclear, especially when weighted against their adverse effects.
Constatations/points à retenir

Further, the potential of cannabinoids to alleviate opioid withdrawal is determined by complex interactions between patient characteristics and pharmacological factors.
