New cannabis Patch For Fibromyalgia Pain & Diabetic Nerve Pain Treatment













Two new medications have been developed for fibromyalgia pain and diabetic nerve pain treatment by a company specializing in cannabis-based medicines. A Transdermal patch is placed on the skin and into the blood stream for the medication of fibromyalgia pain and diabetic nerve pain.
The patched promote healing to an injured area of the body. As compared to other types of medication delivery such as oral, topical, intravenous, intramuscular etc, transdermal drug delivery flight path is more advantageous.
The patch used for the diabetic nerve pain treatment provides the patient with a controlled release of the medication into the patient, it can be provided to the patient via various forms such as:
  1. Through a porous membrane covering a reservoir of medication.
  2. Body heat melting thin layers of medication embedded in the adhesive which will be containing high potency cannabinoid (CBD) extract, this extract slowly enters in the blood stream and then penetrates the central nervous system of the patient delivering the pain relief sought.
The CEO of cannabis science, Mr. Raymond C. Dabney believes that the future of cannabis science is based on the development of these two new pharmaceutical medicinal applications.  The company is striving to enhance the land capacity for growth and facilities to manufacture its own products to supply to scientists with proprietary materials to make these formulations. On the other hand cannabis company is also busy in researching more potential needs for cannabis medical applications and introducing the methods for delivery of these medications.
Fibromyalgia is estimated to affect 2%-8% of the population while females are about double as likely to suffer from fibromyalgia condition. People with diabetic nerve pain and fibromyalgia experience chronic widespread pain and alarming pain response to pressure. Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is considered as damage or a disease affecting nerves which may impair sensation, movement, gland or organ function or other aspects of health depending on the type of nerves affected.
‘’CBD is the second major cannabinoid in marijuana after THC. Without the psychoactive effects that THC brings, it has anti-inflammatory and pain-reveling properties. MR Dabney also concludes that: ‘’ as more states nationwide legislate for the legalization of cannabis and cannabis-derived medications, here at Cannabis Science, the focus is on the development of pharmaceutical medications and applications to supply the huge growing demand expected over the coming few years.’’

Fibromyalgia: “I am 41 years Old & I Live in the Body of an Old Man”

He is always tired, and all the time it hurts. Patrick Schutz of Neuchâtel has fibromyalgia – an invisible condition that is not recognized by disability insurance. Pain, pain, nothing but pain: Patrick Schuts (41) from Neuchâtel always has the feeling that he has the flu – without a fever, but with enormous lead fatigue. He would like to stay in bed all day and spend time there. “Every part of my body hurts, though, fortunately not all at the same time,” he told the magazine “L’illustré”.  Patrick Schutz and his partner have a three-year-old daughter, Naya. Even if he plays with her only 20 minutes, he runs out of energy for the whole day. “When I’ve slept, and then I wake up, I’m as tired as if I have not slept.” He has lost many friends who think he is pretending. At night you can not go out with them as before, because you need to go to bed at 7 pm to relax. The diagnosis of his suffering a year ago was revealed: Fibromyalgia....

'Fibromyalgia and Us' Comic Explains What Life Is Like for Patients and Their Families

One of the most frustrating aspects of  fibromyalgia  is how little it is understood by others — and how difficult it can be for patients to describe the challenges they’re dealing with. To help more people understand, the University of Dundee in Scotland is trying a new approach: creating a comic to tell the “story” of fibromyalgia. The comic, called “Fibromyalgia and Us,” was published last week and is a collaboration between the University of Dundee’s Scottish Centre for Comics Studies, Ink Pot Studios (based in Dundee Comics Creative Space), Christopher Murray of Comics Studies and Divya Jindal-Snape of the School of Education and Social Work. Jindal-Snape, who has fibromyalgia herself, told The Mighty that she got the idea for the comic after a pain clinic psychologist told her more needed to be done to make health professionals aware of fibromyalgia. Knowing full well the lack of awareness around fibromyalgia, Jindal-Snape said was lying i...

FDA Approves Clinical Trial to Test Treating Fibromyalgia With TB Vaccine

With the recent approval of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a human clinical trial is set to begin on BCG, a vaccine typically used to prevent tuberculosis, to treat  fibromyalgia . BCG, or Bacillus Calmette-Guerin, has been used since 1921 as a TB vaccine in countries with a high prevalence of TB. One particular type, or “species,” of BCG is also used to treat  bladder cancer . Some studies have shown promise in BCG’s ability to potentially  treat type 1  diabetes and  multiple sclerosis  by  enhancing the immune system’s  ability to fight its own diseased cells — a process known as immunotherapy. The trial is funded by EpicGenetics, a biomedical company that also manufactures a blood test for fibromyalgia called the FM/a Test.  Research by  physician and EpicGenetics CEO Bruce Gillis suggests that fibromyalgia is an immune system disorder that causes patients to have abnormal white blood cells that p...
