A systematic review in 2014 by the American Academy of Neurology found that nabiximols was 'probably effective' for spasticity, pain, and urinary dysfunction, but wasn't supported for tremor. [20] A 2021 study, however, showed “clinically relevant symptomatic results” [21] Nabiximols has also been studied for cancer pain resistant to opioids.
Sodium channel blockers are also used as local anesthetics and anticonvulsants. [5] Sodium channel blockers have been proposed for use in the treatment of cystic fibrosis, [6] but current evidence is mixed. [7] It has been suggested that the analgesic effects of some antidepressants may be mediated in part via sodium channel blockade. [8]
However, other research has found that CBG does inhibit FAAH and DGL, as well as monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), although it is less potent as an inhibitor of FAAH than cannabidiol (CBD). Aside from endocannabinoid-metabolizing enzymes, CBG is a weak inhibitor of the cyclooxygenase COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes (30% inhibition of each at 25,000 nM). [1]
CBD (short for cannabidiol) is a compound found in cannabis or hemp plants that has shown promising pain-relieving properties. While Equilibria's balm contains less than 0.3% THC (the psychoactive ...
[1] [2] Cannabidiol (CBD), a naturally occurring cannabinoid and a non-competitive CB 1 /CB 2 receptor antagonist, as well as Δ 9-tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), a naturally occurring cannabinoid, modulate the effects of THC via direct blockade of cannabinoid CB 1 receptors, thus behaving like first-generation CB 1 receptor inverse agonists ...
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid, one of 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants, along with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and accounts for up to 40% of the plant's extract. [16] Medically, it is an anticonvulsant used to treat multiple forms of epilepsy . [ 4 ]
Suzetrigine, sold under the brand name Journavx, is a medication used for the management of pain. [1] [2] It is a non-opioid, small-molecule analgesic that works as a selective inhibitor of Na v 1.8-dependent pain-signaling pathways in the peripheral nervous system, [3] [4] avoiding the addictive potential of opioids.
Beta blockers (e.g., atenolol, propranolol) – β-adrenergic receptor antagonists [43] [45] [46] Bupropion (Wellbutrin) – norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor negative allosteric modulator [44] Cannabidiol (CBD) – cannabinoid receptor modulator and other actions, found in cannabis [47] [11] [12]
