THC-CBD oromucosal spray (Sativex)
Sativex is an oromucosal spray containing both THC and CBD, derived from cannabis. It’s used to treat symptoms like muscle spasms and pain in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. The spray is applied inside the mouth, allowing the active ingredients to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. THC provides pain relief and muscle relaxation, while CBD helps reduce inflammation and may counteract some psychoactive effects. Sativex offers a controlled way to manage difficult symptoms with potentially fewer side effects compared to other forms of cannabis. It’s prescribed by healthcare providers and used under medical supervision.
