RESUMEN
Antecedentes. A la planta de cannabis y a los fármacos cannabinoides se les han atribuido efectos antiinflamatorios,
analgésicos y anticonvulsivantes, entre otros, y por ello se han utilizado para tratar diversas
patologías.
Objetivo. Evaluar el uso y los efectos terapéuticos de la planta de cannabis y los fármacos cannabinoides
en diversas enfermedades.
Método. Se utilizó un diseño descriptivo mediante la revisión narrativa
de la literatura sobre el uso de la planta de cannabis (mariguana) y los fármacos cannabinoides (nabilona,
cannabinol y dronabinol, entre otros) en los buscadores Medline, Cochrane, SciELO y otros. Se incluyeron
sólo los estudios clínicos, controlados, doble ciego y aleatorizados, así como la vía de administración y el
fármaco cannabinoide utilizado.
Resultados. Treinta y cuatro estudios cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión.
La nabilona fue el fármaco más empleado (12 estudios), seguida del delta-9-tetrahidrocannabinol (THC)
(11 estudios). Tanto la planta como los fármacos cannabinoides se utilizaron para tratar diversos síntomas
o enfermedades. Dos estudios reportaron su uso para el síndrome de Gilles de la Tourette. Discusión y
conclusión. La mayoría de los estudios revisados indican que la efectividad de la planta de mariguana o de
los fármacos cannabinoides no es superior a la de los fármacos convencionales y que sus beneficios deben
tomarse con cautela.
