SYNTHETIC CANNABINOIDS-COMMERCIAL
Nabilone is a synthetic cannabinoid with therapeutic use asan antiemetic and as an adjunct analgesic for neuropathicpain. It is a synthetic cannabinoid, which mimics the mainingredient of cannabis (THC). Chemically, nabilone is similarto the active ingredient found in naturally occurring Cannabissativa L.In Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and Mexico, nabilone ismarketed as Cesamet. It was approved in 1985 by the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration (FDA) for treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea andvomiting that has not responded to conventional antiemetics. Though it wasapproved by the FDA in 1985, the drug only began marketing in the United Statesin 2006. It is also approved for use in treatment of anorexia and weight loss inpatients with AIDS.Although it doesn' t have the official indication (except in Mexico), nabilone iswidely used as an adjunct therapy for chronic pain management. Numerous trialsand case studies have demonstrated various benefits for condition such asfibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis.

Sativex is an oromucosal (mouth) spray developed by the UKcompany GW Pharmaceuticals for multiple sclerosis patients,who can use it to alleviate neuropathic pain, spasticity,overactive bladder, and other symptoms. Sativex is also beingprescribed to alleviate pain due to cancer and has beenresearched in various models of peripheral and centralneuropathic pain.Sativex is distinct from all other pharmaceutically produced cannabinoidscurrently available because it is derived from botanical material, rather than asolely synthetic process. Sativex is a pharmaceutical product standardized incomposition, formulation, and dose. Its principal active cannabinoid componentsare the cannabinoids: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD).
