Résumé

Many Canadians use cannabis for medicinal and recreational purposes. We describe the current understandings of how cannabis is metabolized in the liver and its potential interactions with other common drugs. We also summarize how cannabis may exert various effects in chronic liver diseases (CLDs), especially in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) and fatty liver disease.
