Cannabis appears to be a safe and potentially very effective treatment for the chronic pain that affects people with sickle cell anemia, according to a new clinical trial co-led by researcher Kalpna Gupta of the University of California, Irvine (UCI) and Dr. Donald Abrams of UC. San Francisco.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The results of the study, published July 17, 2020, could have far-reaching implications in that opioids are currently the primary treatment to relieve chronic and acute pain suffered by people affected by sickle cell disease (SCD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SCD is a common inherited blood disorder, also called sickle cell anemia in its more severe stages. The disease affects an estimated 70,000 to 100,000 Americans and more than 100 million people worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only cure for SCD is a bone marrow or stem cell transplant, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The rise in opioid-related deaths and addiction has forced doctors to prescribe them less frequently<\/strong>, leaving sickle cell anemia patients with fewer and fewer treatment options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The results of these studies show that vaporized cannabis appears to be generally safe”<\/em>, says Kalpna Gupta, a professor of medicine on the faculty of Irvine’s Center for the Study of Cannabis at the University of California<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gupta said that in addition to the study being available, the trial opened the door to testing different forms of medical cannabis to treat chronic pain<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Studies also suggest that patients with sickle cell anemia may be able to relieve their pain with cannabis – and that cannabis may help society address the opioid-related public health crisis. Of course, we still need more studies with more participants to get a better idea of how cannabis could benefit people with chronic pain.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trials were the first to use such gold-standard methods to assess the potential of cannabis for pain relief in people with sickle cell anemia, noted a press release from the UCI Center for the Study of Cannabis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Researchers assessed participants’ pain levels throughout the treatment period and found that the effectiveness of the cannabis, which contained equal parts THC and CBD, increased over time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the five-day study period progressed, twenty-three subjects reported that pain interfered less and less with their activities, including walking and sleeping, and there was a statistically significant decrease in how much pain affected their mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all know very well that cannabis works for all kinds of pain, but more clinical trials and scientific research is needed to make even the most die-hard cannabis opponent say “Wow, I didn’t see that coming”. So fingers crossed for scientists to get more money into their accounts for research into this wonderful herb called cannabis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nukaseeds offer several models <\/a>that have strong analgesic properties and significantly reduce the level of pain felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
