Purpose of Review

Cannabis is a naturally occurring plant that is composed of over sixty phytocannabinoids, of which cannabidiol (CBD) has been recently identified as having therapeutic potential.

Recent Findings

Although not clearly understood in its mechanism of action, CBD contains potent anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperalgesia, and analgesic qualities now being further analyzed for its use in the treatment of a plethora of diseases. Related to its large safety profile and lack of psychoactive effects typically associated with cannabis and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD is being used more frequently for self-treatment of chronic pain, anxiety, and depression. With the help of broad marketing, CBD is being used by numerous people, including pregnant women who use CBD as an anti-emetic. Since marijuana is legalized in many states in the USA, the use of CBD has increased not only in the general population but also in specific groups such as pregnant women with chronic pain.

Summary

Despite CBD’s accessibility, there are limited studies showing its safety during pregnancy. While the use of cannabis has been well explored in terms of the effects on pregnancy, the use of CBD during pregnancy thus far has limited literature. The goal of this investigation is to impart the current understanding of CBD and its effects of pregnancy.

怀孕期间使用大麻二酚的注意事项和含义。

审查目的

大麻是一种天然植物，由60多种植物大麻素组成，其中大麻素（CBD）最近已被确定具有治疗潜力。

最近的发现

尽管CBD的作用机理尚不清楚，但CBD具有有效的抗炎，抗痛觉过敏和镇痛作用，目前正在进一步分析其在多种疾病中的应用。由于CBD具有很大的安全性，并且缺乏通常与大麻和四氢大麻酚（THC）有关的精神活性，因此CBD越来越多地用于慢性疼痛，焦虑和抑郁的自我治疗。在广泛的市场营销的帮助下，CBD被无数人使用，包括使用CBD止吐的孕妇。由于大麻在美国许多州都合法化，因此CBD的使用不仅在普通人群中有所增加，而且在特定人群（例如患有慢性疼痛的孕妇）中的使用也有所增加。

概要

尽管CBD的可及性，但有限的研究表明其在怀孕期间的安全性。尽管从对怀孕的影响方面已经很好地研究了大麻的使用，但迄今为止，在怀孕期间使用CBD的文献有限。这项研究的目的是赋予人们对CBD及其对怀孕的影响的最新认识。
