Abstract
In recent years, the administration of medicinal cannabis has appeared as a therapeutic alternative to psychiatric disorders that do not respond to traditional pharmacological treatments. This systematic review will address the use of cannabidiol (CBD), which is one of the active ingredients of the Cannabis sativa plant, used in disorders that affect mental health such as: anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder or autism spectrum disorders (ASD). To this end, a search was carried out into scientific literature published between 2017 and 2024 regarding the therapeutic effects of CBD in patients with the aforementioned disorders that do not respond to standard pharmacological treatments. Scientific literature that showed significant improvements in the reduction of psychiatric symptoms or in the treatment of situations such as craving, which is an intense and often uncontrollable desire to consume a pleasurable substance, commonly associated with addictions, was included. This research reveals multiple studies that affirm that the use of medicinal Cannabis is essential as a long-term treatment for the presence of disorders associated with depression and anxiety.
