Unravelling the landscape of Cannabis craving pharmacological treatments: a PRISMA-guided review of evidence

pubmed logo

“Currently, few treatments are available for craving in general, and none of them have received approval for cannabis craving.

The objective of this review is to evaluate existing studies analysing treatments for cannabis craving and explore novel treatment possibilities for these patients.

The current pharmacological treatments largely involve off-label drug use and the utilisation of cannabinoid-based medications, such as combinations of THC and lofexidine, oxytocin, progesterone, and N-acetylcysteine.

These emerging treatments show promise and have the potential to revolutionise current clinical practices, but further investigation is needed to establish their efficacy.”
