Abstract Recent work aimed at the introduction of natural and synthetic cannabinoids as drugs is reviewed. Δ1-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ1-THC) is mainly investigated as a potential drug against glaucoma and asthma, and as an antiemetic agent in cancer chemotherapy. Cannabidiol is being tried in the clinic against epilepsy and as a hypnotic. Numerous synthetic cannabinoids are currently being investigated as analgetics and as sedative-relaxants.
