Summary

This study is testing a full-spectrum cannabis extract containing CBD and THC in 36 women with fibromyalgia, a condition causing widespread pain, fatigue, and sleep problems. Participants will receive different doses over six months to see if it improves symptoms and quality of life. It is an early-stage, open-label trial, meaning everyone knows they are getting the treatment, so results are preliminary.

cannabis extract (CBD and THC)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for fibromyalgia that reduces pain and improves quality of life with fewer side effects than current medications.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-phase pilot study with only 36 participants and no placebo group, so results may not be reliable or generalizable. The optimal dose and long-term safety are still unknown.
