Meet Carol. She’s been struggling with uncontrolled pain for years – primarily in her hands. We started her on a topical cannabis cream a few months ago and she is seeing great improvement–not only in her pain, but also her sleep, which was disrupted for years due to the unbearable pain.
Clinically, we’re seeing this a lot amongst our patients. Topicals can be a great way for prescribers and patients alike to dip their toe in the water with cannabinoid medicine – with no impairment to the user. They can be used on their own – or as an adjunct therapy when more pain control is needed. There are new formulations coming out all the time and they’re becoming increasingly more effective.
