Cannabis, commonly known as marijuana, is used by at least 18% of the United States (US) population, which makes it the most commonly used federally illegal drug in the United States. It is widely used for recreational purposes, while its therapeutic benefits have been extensively explored in the US. For several years, cannabis has been used for the treatment of diverse health conditions, including pain management, anti-inflammatory effects, and spasticity associated with multiple sclerosis and other neurodegenerative diseases. However, cannabis use has been associated with some acute and chronic adverse effects. This review sheds light on gastrointestinal disorders, gastroesophageal reflux disease, pancreatitis, and peptic ulcer disease that have been associated with cannabis use.
