How can the experiences of patients using cannabinoids inform future research directions? The experiences of patients using cannabinoids can provide valuable insights that inform future research directions by highlighting real-world outcomes, efficacy, and tolerability of cannabinoid therapies. Patient-reported outcomes and qualitative data can reveal specific symptom relief, adverse effects, and overall satisfaction with cannabinoid treatments. Incorporating patient experiences into study designs can help researchers identify critical areas for investigation and develop targeted interventions. Engaging patients in research initiatives fosters a patient-centered approach, ensuring that studies address the most pressing needs and concerns of individuals seeking cannabinoid therapies (Bachhuber et al., 2016).
