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 To Be Recognised as Long-Term Condition

Fibromyalgia is to be recognised by health professionals in Northern Ireland as a long-term condition. People who suffer from it complain of aches all over the body, as well as profound fatigue. Other symptoms include headaches, sleep deprivation and difficulty concentrating. Despite the severity of symptoms, people living with the condition in NI have said their voices have gone unheard and their symptoms ignored. Chronic aches After being inundated with complaints, the Patient and Client Council in Northern Ireland three years ago pressed the case for fibromyalgia to be recognised as a long-term condition. Having interviewed sufferers and lobbied politicians and health professionals, dedicated services are to be established across the health trusts. Image caption Martina Marks said she has had to live with pain for the last 10 years Martina Marks, who lives in County Down, said it was a relief to be taken seriously.

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...

Unrest Reviewed: The Award-Winning Documentary About Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

It’s not often that you see films covering conditions like fibromyalgia. And  Unrest , released in 2017, isn’t specifically about fibromyalgia. But if you take the time to follow the director of the film,  Jennifer Brea , along on her journey through the world of  chronic fatigue syndrome  (or  myalgic encephalomyelitis , as it’s referred to in the film), you’ll find that the film still has a lot of value for anyone with fibromyalgia. Chronic fatigue syndrome shares many similarities with fibromyalgia, and in the opening seconds of the film, the viewer is met with something that will be instantly recognizable to anyone with the condition: a heartbreaking and even visceral sequence where Brea struggles to crawl the few inches along the floor to her bed while she is racked with pain. It’s a powerful way to open a film about a devastating disease. The pain Brea is experiencing is clear on her face, and the dark circles under her ...
