Abstract
Medical cannabis is one of the most commonly reported therapeutic treatments sought for chronic pain. The wide acceptance and research in alternative medicine has put medical cannabis in the limelight, where researchers are widely examining the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis and its association to treat chronic pain.
The purpose of this scoping review is to provide an overview of the perspectives on CBD as an alternative treatment for chronic pain among health professionals and legal cannabis users.
