Cannabicitran

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Cannabicitran (CBT) is a cannabinoid that is found in the Cannabis plant. It is one of the many phytocannabinoids that contribute to the plant's medicinal properties.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

Cannabicitran is a homologue of cannabidiol (CBD), with the molecular formula C21H30O2. It is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, meaning it does not produce the "high" associated with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The pharmacological effects of cannabicitran are not well-studied. However, like other cannabinoids, it is believed to interact with the endocannabinoid system in the human body. This system plays a role in a variety of physiological processes, including pain sensation, mood, and memory.

Medical uses[edit | edit source]

While the medical uses of cannabicitran are not yet fully understood, it is believed to have potential therapeutic benefits. These may include anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-anxiety effects. More research is needed to fully understand the potential medical uses of this cannabinoid.

Legal status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of cannabicitran varies by country and in some cases, by state or province. In many places, it is regulated under the same laws as other cannabinoids.
