Cannabis, efectos adversos y terapéuticos

Abstract

El cannabis es una planta que, aunque en nuestro medio se utiliza con finalidades propiamente recreativas, podría tener aplicaciones terapéuticas. Su principal principio activo es el Δ9-Tetrahidrocannabinol (Δ9-THC). Aunque se da en todas las edades, el consumo en población juvenil es más elevado. El consumo recreativo de cannabis se realiza en mayor medida por vía intrapulmonar (fumada) y, por su alta absorción, es el que más efectos psicotrópicos y adversos produce. No es una sustancia muy tóxica, pero el consumo regular de cannabis se asocia a un número considerable de efectos adversos, siendo los de tipo psiquiátrico los que más preocupación causan. Por otro lado, los cannabinoides tienen una gran cantidad de potenciales efectos terapéuticos: Algunos derivados están comercializados para su uso; en otras ocasiones existen mejores productos disponibles; dada la ubicuidad del sistema cannabinoide endógeno y sus múltiples funciones, en la actualidad se está investigando el uso de derivados cannábicos en bastantes otras indicaciones.

Even though in our society, the Cannabis plant is mainly used as a recreational substance, it may have also therapeutic properties. The main active principle of the plant is Δ9-THC (Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol). Cannabis consumption is mainly done through the intrapulmonary route (smoked). Due to its high absorption, this route is the one which produces more psychotropic and adverse effects. Even though all kind of people consume cannabis, adolescents and young person tend to consume it most. It is not a highly toxic substance. Nevertheless, it may induce a high number of adverse effects when consumed regularly. Those which belong to the psychiatric sphere are most worrisome. On the other hand, cannabinoids may have a huge amount of potential therapeutic utilities. Some products are already commercialized for their clinical use; in some other cases, better pharmaceutical drugs are available; given the ubiquity and multiplicity of the endogenous cannabinoid system, their use is being investigated for quite different clinical indications.
