Newest firstBackground/Objectives: Dravet Syndrome (DS) is a severe form of epilepsy that typically manifests in the first year of life and often requires polytherapy with two or more antiseizure medications (ASMs) to achieve adequate seizure control. Whereas the combination of stiripentol (STP) and cannabidiol (CBD) has demonstrated clinical efficacy, it presents significant formulation challenges due to the low aqueous solu…
Open article record in new tab ↗Background Cannabis derivatives have been reported to possess antinociceptive properties. However, oral delivery is limited by poor bioavailability, stability, and reliability of effects. Previously, we reported an analgesic effect of the aqueous complex Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol/2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (THC/HPβCD) after intracerebroventricular administration in male rats. Methods Here, we investigated the an…
Background Cannabis edibles are an increasingly popular form of cannabis consumption. Oral consumption of cannabis has distinct physiological and behavioral effects compared with injection or inhalation. An animal model is needed to understand the pharmacokinetics and physiological effects of oral cannabis consumption in rodents as a model for human cannabis edible use. Methods Adult male and female C57BL/6 mice r…
Open article record in new tab ↗A novel formulation based on nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) was developed to increase solubility and intestinal absorption of khellin. K-NLCs were prepared with stearic acid, hempseed oil, Brij S20, and Labrafil M 1944 CS, using the emulsification-ultrasonication method. Developed nanoparticles were chemically and physically characterized by liquid chromatography, light scattering techniques, and electron mi…
In a commentary, Grotenhermen, Russo, and Zuardi questioned not only the clinical relevance but also the conclusions of a recently published study by Merrick et al. on the conversion of cannabidiol (CBD) to delta-8 and delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in simulated gastric fluid. In response, this article aims to provide a thorough review of the in vitro and in vivo studies of gastric CBD conversion as well as po…
