This disclosure provides multifunctional conjugate molecules in which at least one therapeutic agent is covalently attached to a cannabinoid. The disclosed conjugate molecules are designed to deliver therapeutic benefits of both components, with release of the cannabinoid upon binding of the therapeutic agent component to its target conveying further therapeutic benefits, and can be used to treat cancer, glaucoma, confusion or dementia, and other disorders.
