title: [Treatment of cannabis dependence].
abstract: Cannabis is the most regularly used illicit drug in the world. Yet, until recently, there existed no therapeutic intervention for the users of this product. This was due to the fact that cannabis has always been considered a substance that doesn't lead to dependence and thus didn't necessitate a management plan for quitting. The results of the first studies in the domain of cannabis dependence suggest that this pathology responds to the same types of treatments for alcohol and tobacco dependence.
