Abstract

The use of cannabis and cannabinoid products is a growing area of research for the treatment of different pathologies including neuropathic pain. The studies developed so far and what is observed in the clinical practice, demonstrate the importance of this medication in a pathology of such complexity and difficult control, besides of that, more randomized controlled studies are needed to confirm medical cannabis an adjunct medication in the treatment of neuropathic pain. This case report aims to demonstrate the validity of joining GMP cannabis products as an adjuvant therapy for an effective with low profile side effects treatment leading to an improvement in quality of life.
