Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions useful in a method for treating neuropathic pain, said method comprising administration of a pain-ameliorating effective amount of the compound according to formula I wherein R is an alk(en)yl group, R1 is an alkylen(yl) group, n is 0 or 1 and Ar is a carbocyclic aryl group.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cannabinoid-containing plant extracts in the prevention or treatment of diseases or conditions that are alleviated by blockade of one or more types of TRP channel. Preferably the subset of TRP channel that is blockaded is the TRPA channel. More preferably the TRPA channel is the TRPA1 channel. Preferably the diseases or conditions to be prevented or treated include: neuropathic pain, inflammation or vasoconstriction. Alternatively the TRP channel that is blockaded is the TRPM channel. More preferably the TRPM channel is the TRPM8 channel. Preferably the diseases or conditions to be prevented or treated are cancer. More preferably the cancers to be treated include: cancer of the prostate, cancer of the breast, cancer of the colon, cancer of the lung or cancer of the skin. Alternatively the TRP channel that is blockaded is the TRPV channel. More preferably the TRPV channel is the TRPV1 channel.

Abstract: The present invention provides pharmaceutical compositions useful in a method for treating neuropathic pain, said method comprising administration of a pain-ameliorating effective amount of the compound according to formula I wherein X may be Y may be wherein R is H or (CH2)mH, alternatively the bond between X and Y may be a double or triple bond, e.g. X?Y or X?Y; wherein n is an integer of from 1 to 10, m is an integer of from 1 to 4 and the total carbon atoms in the alkenyl amide chain is from about 11 to about 20 as an active ingredient together with one or more pharmaceutically-acceptable additives, excipients or diluents.
