  • Patent number: 11865102
    Abstract: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a cannabinoid designated chemically as 2-[(IR,6R)-3-Methyl-6-(1-methylethenyl)-2-cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3-benzenediol. Its empirical formula is C21H30O2 and its molecular weight is 314.46. CBD is a cannabinoid that naturally occurs in the Cannabis sativa L. plant. CBD is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid which is insoluble in water and soluble in organic solvents. The present invention encompasses the surprising recognition that certain CBD preparations which are prepared from a botanical origin are more effective in treating diseases or disorders than preparations of CBD which are synthetic or purified to the extent no other impurities in the form of other cannabinoids are present. Prior CBD compositions have been prepared such that no psychoactive components, e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), remain in the final CBD preparation. Surprisingly, the absence of such minor impurities reduces the efficacy of CBD treatment.

  • Patent number: 11738022
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for inducing or enhancing rapid and significant dilation of a subject's pupils. In certain embodiments, the method comprises upregulating the alpha-1 receptors in the eye of the subject, thereby increasing sensitivity to alpha-1 agonists. In other embodiments, such upregulation is achieved through administration of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of alpha-2 selective agonists and beta adrenoreceptor antagonists for a period of time prior to the intended time of dilation. After inducing the upregulation of alpha-1 receptors through the administration of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of alpha-2 selective agonists and beta adrenoreceptor antagonists, alpha-1 agonists can be administered to induce or enhance rapid and strong pupil dilation.
