CBD Shows Antimicrobial Potential Against Oral Pathogens, Study Finds
A study published in the Dentistry journal reports that cannabidiol (CBD) may help combat bacteria and fungi linked to oral disease. The review was conducted by researchers from the University of the Republic, the Federal University of Pelotas, the University of the Andes Mérida, and the Federal University of Jequitinhonha and Mucuri Valleys.
Study: Liposomal CBD Injections Show Weeks-Long Pain Relief and Steady CBD Levels in Goats
A study published this month in the journal Frontiers in Pharmacology reports that subcutaneous injections of liposomal cannabidiol (CBD) provided weeks of steady CBD exposure and notable improvements in pain-related behaviors in two goats with chronic, naturally occurring orthopedic conditions. The investigation, conducted by scientists at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, followed two male neutered …
CBD Boosts the Effectiveness of Phenobarbital in Newborn Seizure Model, Study Finds
A new study published in Frontiers in Pediatrics reports that cannabidiol (CBD) may significantly strengthen the seizure-reducing effects of phenobarbital (PB) in newborns, particularly when PB is given at doses too low to work on its own. The research team from the Federal University of Alagoas and the Federal University of Minas Gerais used a neonatal …
