What Do We Know About Medical Cannabis in Neurological Disorders and What Are the Next Steps?

Medical use of cannabis has been receiving growing attention over the last few decades in modern medicine. As we know that the endocannabinoid system is largely involved in neurological disorders, we focused on the scientific rationale of medical cannabis in three neurological disorders: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease through pharmacological plausibility, clinical studies, and patients' view. Clinical studies (randomized controlled trials, open-label studies, cohorts, and case reports) exploring medical cannabis in these disorders show different results depending on the methods and outcomes.
