An Israeli Hospital Is Testing a CBD Treatment for Coronavirus Patients
CBD for Coronavirus? An Israeli investigation at Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv will look at the effect of cannabis compound CBD on Coronavirus (COVID-19) patients, according to Jewish Press.
The new examination is exploring whether one of the dynamic substances in cannabis, cannabidiol (CBD), can hinder the inflammation process that comes with the weakening condition of severe COVID-19 patients and reduce the side effects of the infection.
The examination is being led in a joint effort with some of the wards in the clinic and is expected to include many moderately sick patients.
Dr. Barak Cohen, a senior anesthesiologist and leader of Coronavirus management at Ichilov and the examination’s initiators, said that “this is a novel approach to treating some of the symptoms, using a component of the cannabis plant that is considered safe and non-addictive.”
The CBD for Coronavirus trial is being led by the clinic and is not currently affiliated with any company.
Cannabidiol (CBD), which represents up to 40% of the hemp plant’s concentrate, has been examined for the treatment of anxiety, mental health, movement issues, and pain.
The CBD drug Epidiolex was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2018 for the treatment of two epilepsy disorders.
Meanwhile, CBD has become a budding alternative health industry across the U.S. and beyond.
