Cannabis oil May Be Effective For Painful Diabetic Neuropathy


cannabis diabetic neuropathy

Small, short-term research of cannabis oil as a treatment for painful diabetic neuropathy has made a big impression on at least one prominent pain expert.
Proceeds from the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled comparison of 16 patients indicated that cannabis oil produces a dose-dependent reduction of diabetic peripheral neuropathy–associated pain in treatment-refractory individuals (J Pain 2015;16:616-627).

“There’s immense value in this investigation because it gives more support for the need for us to scientifically explore the possible opportunities with various cannabinoids,” said Lynn R. Webster, MD, who was not involved in the research. The past president of the American Academy of Pain Medicine, vice president of scientific affairs for PRA Health Sciences in Salt Lake City and a Pain Medicine News editorial advisory board member additionally said, “There’s a whole bunch of investigation available with the various cannabinoid options for treating pain that has been significantly limited because of our regulatory barriers.”

Lead investigator Mark Wallace, MD, chair of the Division of Pain Medicine in the Department of Anesthesiology at the School of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, agreed. He recorded that the agency that funded the research—the Center for  Cannabis Oil Research—has since closed. Nevertheless, he and his collaborators are writing an application for a project titled “Developing the Therapeutic Potential of the Endocannabinoid System for Pain Treatment” under the National Institutes of Health’s grant program.

The study’s associates received a placebo or, in random order, one dose of cannabis oil containing 1%, 4% or 7% tetrahydrocannabinol in four different sessions, each separated by two weeks. The investigators assessed parameters such as pain sensation and cognitive ability at five, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes post-inhalation and then every 30 minutes for the next three hours.

The average pain score after taking high-dose tetrahydrocannabinol was 1.1 points lower than after inhaling placebo, 1.01 points lower than after inhaling low-dose cannabis and 0.9 points lower than after inhaling medium-dose cannabis (P<0.001 for all).

Pain provoked by gently stroking a foam brush on the dorsum of the patients’ more painful foot was significantly higher with placebo than with high-dose cannabis oil, was significantly elevated for low- versus high-dose cannabis oil and for medium- versus high-dose cannabis oil. Furthermore, pricking the dorsum of the more painful foot with a 5.18-Von Frey hair filament yielded significantly increased pain scores with placebo versus high-dose cannabis oil, low- versus high-dose cannabis oil and medium- versus high-dose cannabis oil.

The results also indicated that reductions in spontaneous pain 30, 45 and 60 minutes after the patients took high-dose cannabis oil were significantly greater than after they inhaled a placebo.

When controlled for the previous dose, mixed-effects models showed that placebo, low and medium doses were all associated with significantly higher mean pain scores at the first follow-up visit than at the first visit.

“You have to be careful in interpreting the comparison because subjects only took each dose level once,” noted Dr Wallace. “What we need is a longer-term consideration in which subjects inhale each dose several times.”

Why Medical Marijuana and why now?

  More states are passing laws that allow people to use medical marijuana. So what does it treat, and who can and should use it? Pain is the main reason people ask for a prescription, says Barth Wilsey, MD, a pain medicine specialist at the University of California Davis Medical Center. It could be from headaches, a disease like cancer, or a long-term condition, like glaucoma or nerve pain. If you live in a state where medical marijuana is legal and your doctor thinks it would help, you’ll get a “marijuana card.” You will be put on a list that allows you to buy marijuana from an authorized seller, called a dispensary. Doctors also may prescribe medical marijuana to treat: Muscle spasms caused by multiple sclerosis Nausea from cancer chemotherapy Poor appetite and weight loss caused by chronic illness, such as HIV, or nerve pain Seizure disorders Crohn's disease The FDA has also approved THC, a key ingredient in marijuana, to treat nausea and improve appetite. It's ava...

The Extraordinary Properties of Rick Simpson Oil

In 2008, RSO creator Rick Simpson revealed a documentary entitled Run From The Cure, which recounted his experience and discovery of how cannabis could treat cancer with concentrated cannabis oil (aka RSO). Since then, many Cannabis oil patients have used the oil to treat cancer. It is all anecdotes, and anecdotes are not science, but due to the hostility of the U.S. government by making it illegal to do research on cannabis, a scientific inquiry into the purported cancer curative potential of cannabis has never been undertaken. Nevertheless, there is a peer-reviewed scientific study recommending that cannabis be an effective anti-cancer agent. Published in the Journal of Cannabis Research 2004 by Dr Manuel Guzman of the Complutense University of Madrid in Spain, he found that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) inhibited the development of brain tumours in laboratory mice. Additionally, in 2006, Dr. Donald Tashkin from the David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California, Los...

Vegetarian Diet and It's Effects

This type of cancer is normally affects women as the name suggests,it attacks the female reproductive tract specifically the cervix which is the neck of the  uterus;the bridge between the birth canal (vagina) and the uterus. Studies have linked cervical cancer to HPV(Human papilloma virus), a sexually disease infection. The HPV is normally transmitted from men who are largely unaffected(they are carriers)during unprotected sex. The disease takes time to grow and when it happens, the cells of the cervix grow abnormally and invade other tissues and organs of the body. When it is invasive,the disease affects the deeper tissue of the body like the vagina,lungs,liver,bladder and rectum. Cervical cancer is slow in progression at its early stages and as such,it is possible to prevent if detected early and treatment commenced immediately . A majority of the patients diagnosed with precancerous changes in the cervix are in their 20s and 30s while the average age of women when they are d...
