What is Epidoliex®?
Epidiolex® is a pharmaceutical-grade CBD preparation made by Greenwich Biosciences Inc. This CBD “drug” comes with a strawberry flavor in the form of an oromucosal CBD spray.
Epidiolex® is approved by the FDA to treat two childhood epileptic conditions (Dravet’s Syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome).
Ultimately, there’s nothing unique about this drug that makes it any better than a high-quality CBD extract. The difference with this product is that the pharmaceutical company behind it has the resources and pipeline to push CBD through the FDA approval process.
No CBD company is allowed to suggest their products for treating specific diseases, but Greenwich is permitted to advertise its “pharmaceutical” version to treat multiple sclerosis-related nerve pain.
