Using Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Pharmacovigilance to Overcome Some of the Challenges of Developing Medicinal Cannabis from Botanical Origins

CONCLUSIONS: A surge of public and clinical interest in the possible therapeutic applications of constituent cannabinoids has potentiated global legislative and policy reform. However, our understanding of its properties, optimized use, and harmful effects remains incomplete (Therapeutic Goods Administration. Guidance for the use of medicinal cannabis in Australia In: Department of Health Department, editor. Woden ACT Australian Government 2017; Dryburgh LM, Bolan NS, Grof CP, Galettis P,…

Purpose: Plants belonging to the genus Cannabis have been domesticated and used by humans for millennia. Thought to have originated from central Asia, cannabis has been harnessed for its nutritional, therapeutic, and psychoactive properties, and as a source of fiber (Office of Medicinal Cannabis. Analytical Monograph Cannabis Flos. Den Haag, The Netherlands: Office of Medicinal Cannabis; 2014). Human use of cannabis is not novel; however, its medicalization offers a new pharmacotherapeutic frontier.

Methods: The authors recently reported a systematic review of the contaminants of cannabis (National Academies of Sciences Engineering, and Medicine. The health effects of cannabis and cannabinoids: the current state of evidence and recommendations for research. Washington, DC; 2017). This article draws on the research limitations identified by that review and examines a collection of the relevant literature to provide an appreciation of the current evidence base.

Results: The review explores the current status of cannabis in medical use, the drug development aspects that apply when taking a plant through to pill development, and the roles that therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacovigilance have to guide practice until the drug development information on medicinal cannabis preparations is complete.

Conclusions: A surge of public and clinical interest in the possible therapeutic applications of constituent cannabinoids has potentiated global legislative and policy reform. However, our understanding of its properties, optimized use, and harmful effects remains incomplete (Therapeutic Goods Administration. Guidance for the use of medicinal cannabis in Australia In: Department of Health Department, editor. Woden ACT Australian Government 2017; Dryburgh LM, Bolan NS, Grof CP, Galettis P, Schneider J, Lucas CJ, et al. Cannabis contaminants: sources, distribution, human toxicity and pharmacologic effects. Brit J Clin Pharm. 2018;84(11):2468-2476). In particular, a comprehensive appreciation of its toxicity profile is lacking.

My experience with CBD

I will not spend an hour summarizing my mental health. I will just say that for years I have been plagued by depression, anxiety, antisocial feelings, and over the past year or so a feeling of brain fog. I was diagnosed with ADD as a child and they decided I didn’t have it 2 years later but I know I likely still do. I decided to finally give CBD from the local Rite aid a try. After 4 days I can say that the brain fog is gone. A week ago I couldn’t even explain the feeling that plagued me. I still don’t feel anything close to a normal person but I can say that I have a better ability to process my brain that I haven’t felt in years. I reccomend anyone who is interested give CBD a try. I only hope the clowns in our country can get past the marijuana BS that they try to strong along and connect to CBD.

Anxiety and ADD?

I went to a doctor to try and sort out my anxiety issues, they are becoming a bit much to self manage. They put me on Prozac and it was a complete nightmare, the side effects were horrible, not to mention all of the unspoken rules that came along with it, no drinking, no ibuprofen, and countless others.

I am a regular THC user and that seems to help control my anxiety in the evenings but I obviously do not use at work which is where the problem lies.

I have issues with general anxiety, social anxiety, and add. Can CBD help me? How do I know how much to take, and do I have to keep taking it as in does it wear off ever couple hours? I dont know anything about this stuff but I know that Prozac is NOT for me!!!
