Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of the cannabinoid cannabigerol (CBG) in the manufacture of medicaments for use in the treatment of diseases and conditions benefiting from concurrent agonism of the CBi and the CB2 cannabinoid receptors. Such diseases or conditions to be treated are taken from the group: pain, neurodegenerative disease, ischemic disease, brain injury or damage, acquired brain injury, age related inflammatory or autoimmune disease, cachexia, nausea and vomiting, glaucoma, movement disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, allergy, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, diabetes, cancer, osteoporosis, renal ischemia and nephritis.
Abstract: The present invention relates to cannabinoids for use in the treatment of neuropathic pain. Preferably the cannabinoids are one or more phytocannabinoids of: cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabidivarin (CBDV) or tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV). More preferably the phytocannabinoids are isolated and/or purified from cannabis plant extracts.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of phytocannabinoids in the treatment of cancer. More particularly it relates to the use of phytocannabinoids in the treatment of tumour cell invasion and cell migration or metastases. Cancers, where invasion and cell migration plays a key role in prognosis include brain tumours, more particularly gliomas, and most particularly Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and breast cancers. The phytocannabinoids tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and cannabidivarin (CBDV) alone or in combination with each other and/or other phytocannabinoids, particularly cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabigerol (CBG) or their respective acids are of particular use.
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. The liniment is applied topically, preferably by spraying, and the constituents of the mixture are absorbed through the skin and interact with cannabinoid receptors in the body and tissues of a human patient to produce therapeutic analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects without undesirable psychotropic side effects.
