[Cannabis and marijuana as multidrug mixture in phytotherapy].
Without doubt, Cannabis sativa L. is one of the oldest and best-known medical plants. Many traditional and modern ways of use potentially give hints for advantages and risks of different preparations. Several individual experiences of patients and physicians as well as some studies suggest that single substances extracted of or derived from cannabis are not the only useful way for the development of drugs. In comparison to single substances, multidrug mixtures prepared from Cannabis sativa, i. e. classical phytotherapeutics, can show a satisfying and possibly advantageous spectrum of desired but also of unwanted effects.
