Preferably the cannabinoids are used in the form of an extract ofsuch that many of the naturally occurring compounds are co-extracted with the THC or CBD. Alternatively, the cannabinoids are present in the form of a highly purified extract of, wherein the CBD or THC are present at greater than 98% of the total extract (w/w) and the other components of the extract are characterized. Alternatively, the CBD and THC may be synthetically produced. A specific ratio of CBD and THC such as 10:1 to 1:10 (CBD:THC) or more preferably between 2:1 to 1:2 (CBD:THC) may be used.
