Inhaled cannabis for chronic neuropathic pain: an individual patient data meta-analysis - The Journal of Pain



abstract
 

Highlights

  • Inhaled cannabis appears to provide short term relief from chronic neuropathic pain for one in five to six patients treated.
  • Our novel Bayesian hierarchical model allowed the synthesis of all available patient data from five RCT with disparate design and outcome reporting.
  • Pragmatic long term studies are needed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of inhaled cannabis for chronic neuropathic pain in the community.
