Patent abstract
The present invention relates to the use of cannabidiol (CBD) in the treatment of Sturge Weber syndrome. CBD appears particularly effective in reducing all types of seizures and non-seizure symptoms in patients suffering with Sturge Weber syndrome. Preferably the CBD used is in the form of a highly purified extract of cannabis such that the CBD is present at greater than 98% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterised. In particular the cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has been substantially removed, to a level of not more than 0.15% (w/w) and the propyl analogue of CBD, cannabidivarin, (CBDV) is present in amounts of up to 1%. Alternatively, the CBD may be a synthetically produced CBD.
