Cannabis and its Derivatives: Guide to Medical Application and Regulatory Challenges summarizes the current state of research and clinical pharmacology of cannabis-based therapeutics, and the associated regulatory framework.The content is organized in twelve chapters. The first four comprise the introduction section covering historical, botanical, and taxonomical platform of cannabis, chemical derivatives of the cannabis plant, a literature review of therapeutic applications, and the biological fate of cannabis and its metabolic products. Part two of the book covers therapeutic applications, including pain management, neurological disorders, cancer management, it’s interactions with other drugs, veterinary applications and the adverse effects of Cannabis overuse in humans. The final section is devoted to discussions around regulatory challenges and future considerations.Cannabis and its Derivatives: Guide to Medical Application and Regulatory Challenges is the ideal reference pharmaceutical scientists, clinicians, and academic researchers who want access to updated information on the therapeutic applications of cannabis and its derivates. Corporate researchers will also benefit from this book’s presentation of the associated regulatory environment.
