Abstract

Cannabis oils from FM2®, Bedica®, Bediol®, Bedrocan®, Bedrolite® and Pedanios 22/1® are largely used for medical purposes such as spasticity, chronic pain and appetite stimulating. Several studies showed cannabinoids action on CB1 and CB2 receptors reduces the hyperalgesic phase in inflammatory pain, leading to an improvement of conditions. The active compounds of these galenic preparations show a high variability making titration mandatory. For this reason, the exact oil composition knowledge is fundamental for personalizing therapy. This amis at adapting the correct dose to the patient, improving safety and efficacy of the galenic formulation, choosing the best preparation for each patient.
