Pharmaceutical oils for Cannabinoid drug products – White Paper

Medicinal Cannabinoids

There are currently more than 150 cannabinoid-based products under development in the world. The first US FDA approved product Epidiolex®, isolated from the cannabis plant and indicated for severe forms of epilepsy is formulated with Sesame oil. Other approved products like Marinol® are also formulated with oils.

Cannabinoids, generally, have a very low solubility in water and are highly lipophilic. Among the hundreds of phyto-cannabinoids in cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) have been studied in many different therapies.
