Demographic trends among older cannabis users in the United States, 2006–13Authors Benjamin H. Han et.al.Department of Medicine, Division of Geriatric Medicine and Palliative Care, New York University School of Medicine, New York, NY, USACenter for Drug Use and HIV Research, New York University College of Nursing, New York, NY, USAFirst published: 5 December 2016 Society for the Study of Addiction A large international survey on the medicinal use of cannabis conducted by the International Association for Cannabinoid Medicine in 31 countries found that 30.5% of the 953 participants surveyed were over the age of 50 [23]. The survey also found that the top five indications for cannabis use included chronic pain, anxiety, loss of appetite or weight loss, depression or sleeping disorder, all common conditions in older age.

Transdermal cannabidiol reduces inflammation and pain-related behaviours in a rat model of arthritisAuthors D.C. Hammell et.al.Department of Physiology, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, KY, USA First published: 30 October 2015 European Journal of Pain Current arthritis treatments often have side-effects attributable to active compounds as well as route of administration. Cannabidiol (CBD) attenuates inflammation and pain without side-effects, but CBD is hydrophobic and has poor oral bioavailability. Topical drug application avoids gastrointestinal administration, first pass metabolism, providing more constant plasma levels.

Cannabidiol for neurodegenerative disorders: important new clinical applications for this phytocannabinoid?Authors: Javier Fernández-Ruiz et. al.Departamento de Bioquímica y Biología Molecular III, Instituto Universitario de Investigación en Neuroquímica, Facultad de Medicina, Universidad Complutense, 28040-MadridCentro de Investigación Biomédica en Red sobre Enfermedades Neurodegenerativas (CIBERNED), 28222-Majadahonda, Madrid, SpainInstituto Ramón y Cajal de Investigación Sanitaria (IRYCIS), 28222-Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain

 Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phytocannabinoid with therapeutic properties for numerous disorders exerted through molecular mechanisms that are yet to be completely identified. CBD acts in some experimental models as an anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, anti-oxidant, anti-emetic, anxiolytic and antipsychotic agent, and is therefore a potential medicine for the treatment of neuroinflammation, epilepsy, oxidative injury, vomiting and nausea, anxiety and schizophrenia, respectively. The neuroprotective potential of CBD, based on the combination of its anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties, is of particular interest and is presently under intense preclinical research in numerous neurodegenerative disorders.

Scientific Studies on CBD

Scientific Studies on CBD, cont.Cannabidiol, a Major Non-Psychotropic Cannabis Constituent Enhances Fracture Healing and Stimulates Lysyl Hydroxylase Activity in Osteoblasts

Authors: Natalya M. Kogan et. al.

Bone Research Laboratory, Department of Anatomy and Anthropology, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University

CBD leads to improvement in fracture healing and demonstrate the critical mechanical role of collagen crosslinking enzymes

Cannabidiol inhibits paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain through 5-HT1A receptors without diminishing nervous system function or chemotherapy efficacy

Authors: Sarah Jane Ward et. al.

Our data suggest that CBD is protective against PAC-induced neurotoxicity mediated in part by the 5-HT 1A receptor system. Furthermore, CBD

treatment was devoid of conditioned rewarding effects or cognitive impairment and did not attenuate PAC-induced inhibition of breast cancer cell viability.
