The present invention relates to parenteral cannabinoid formulations, and more particularly to cannabinoid containing intravenous (IV) formulations. Preferably the parenteral containing formulation comprises a cannabinoid; an isotonic agent; a surfactant; and one or more stability enhancers. Furthermore the cannabinoid may be selected from one or more of cannabichromene (CBC), cannabichromenic acid (CBCV), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabigerol propyl variant (CBGV), cannabicyclol (CBL), cannabinol (CBN), cannabinol propyl variant (CBNV), cannabitriol (CBO), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and tetrahydrocannabivarinic acid (THCVA).

Parenteral formulations

The present invention relates to a novel cannabinoid oral pharmaceutical dosage form, based on a Type IV or Type IV-like formulation, as classified using the Lipid Formulation Classification System. The formulation is contained in a container. By Type IV-like, it is meant that the formulation comprises no oil, for example no triglycerides or mixed glycerides.

Pharmaceutical composition comprising a cannabinoid

The present invention relates to an oral formulation containing one or more cannabinoids. Preferably one or more cannabinoids dissolved in a solvent system consisting essentially of: a non-ionic surfactant and water together with other components which ensure the cannabinoids stability and the formulations palatability. Furthermore, the cannabinoid may be selected from one or more of cannabichromene (CBC), cannabichromenic acid (CBCV), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabigerol propyl variant (CBGV), cannabicyclol (CBL), cannabinol (CBN), cannabinol propyl variant (CBNV), cannabitriol (CBO), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and tetrahydrocannabivarinic acid (THCVA).

Oral cannabinoid formulations

The present invention relates to parenteral cannabinoid formulations, and more particularly to cannabinoid containing intravenous (IV) formulations. Preferably the parenteral containing formulation comprises a cannabinoid; an isotonic agent; a surfactant; and one or more stability enhancers. Furthermore the cannabinoid may be selected from one or more of cannabichromene (CBC), cannabichromenic acid (CBCV), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabigerolpropyl variant (CBGV), cannabicyclol (CBL), cannabinol (CBN), cannabinol propyl variant (CBNV), cannabitriol (CBO), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) and tetrahydrocannabivarinic acid (THCVA).

The present disclosure provides a microparticulate comprising one or more cannabinoids and a pH dependent release polymer. In embodiments, the one or more cannabinoids are present in an amount ranging from 10% w/w to about 50% w/w. In embodiments, the pH dependent release polymer is present in an amount ranging from ranging from about 5% w/w to about 85% w/w.
