Cannabis-Based Medicines: A Promising New Treatment for Tics
Preliminary data suggest that cannabis-based medicines might be a promising new treatment for patients with tics.
Tics are involuntary, repetitive movements or sounds that can be a symptom of a variety of conditions, including Tourette syndrome. Traditional treatments for tics have been limited, and often have significant side effects. Cannabis-based medicines, however, have shown promise as a potential new treatment for tics, with preliminary data suggesting that they may be effective in reducing the frequency and severity of tics.
Despite the lack of many high-quality studies, experts recommend Cannabis preparations as second-line.
While more research is needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of cannabis-based medicines for tics, experts are recommending that they be considered as a second-line treatment for patients who do not respond to traditional treatments. This recommendation is based on the preliminary data suggesting that cannabis-based medicines may be effective in reducing the frequency and severity of tics, and on the fact that they have a relatively low risk of side effects.
