  • Patent number: 6949582
    Abstract: A method of relieving analgesia and reducing inflammation using a cannabinoid delivery topical liniment composition containing from about 97.5% to about 99.5% by weight a 70% monohydric alcohol solution, and from about 0.5% to about 2.5% by weight of a synergistic cannabinoid mixture extracted from the female plant Cannabis sativa L, including in combination: 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC), 9-THC Propyl Analogue (THC-V), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiol Propyl Analogue (CBD-V), Cannabinol (CBN), Cannabichromene (CBC), Cannabichromene Propyl Analogue (CBC-V), Cannabigerol (CBG), terpenoids, and flavonoids.
