Study: Cannabis Extract Shows Pain-Relieving, Anti-Inflammatory, and Anti-Dysmenorrheal Effects
A new study in Frontiers in Pharmacology finds that cannabis extracts deliver strong pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects across several preclinical models.
Researchers prepared a crude ethanolic extract from the aerial parts of the plant, which chemical analysis confirmed contained cannabinoids such as cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and cannabigerol (CBG), along with flavonoids and alkaloids.
The extract was then tested on Swiss mice and Wistar rats using a variety of models measuring pain, inflammation, fever, and primary dysmenorrhea.
The findings showed clear antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity.
