Marijuana Found to Reduce Pain After Chemotherapy
A recent study indicated that a marijuana extract named cannabidiol could help to reduce excruciating neuropathy symptoms for those using paclitaxel. Paclitaxel is commonly used after treatments for ovarian and breast cancer, but can damage nerves causing severe pain. This study used cannabidiol after paclitaxel on lab mice. The effects of the cannabidiol were seen to be permanent and did not disappear after its use was ceased.
