Intro to Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamics of Cannabis
1m
An introduction to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cannabis.
What is Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamics?
3m
In this video segment, Dr. Tagen talks about cannabis PK/PD; the relationship between dose and drug concentrations; and the relationship between drug concentrations and effect. Next, he discusses why PK/PD is complicated as it is used in many conditions with multiple routes of administration.
THC Pharmacodynamics
9m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen discusses how THC activates our main cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 as a partial agonist. Next, he discusses how the distribution of CB1 explains diverse THC side effects depending on dose titration. Finally, THC pharmacodynamics in pain is discussed.
CBD Pharmacodynamics
6m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen explores CBD pharmacodynamics and how the diversity of the condition it may treat is due to complex pharmacology. Next, the direct and indirect effects of CBD and the CB1 receptor are discussed.
CBD & Anxiety
4m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen talks about CBD and anxiety. He explores anecdotal reports and animal model data that show robust effects in reduced anxiety levels for patient volunteers.
CBD & Psychosis
5m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen explores CBD and its potential for patients with psychosis. CBD is discussed as a promising therapeutic alternative for psychosis, as well as its effectiveness in treating schizophrenia and autism.
CBD & Inflammation
3m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen discusses the anti-inflammatory benefits of CBD, and the emergent therapeutic strategy for lessening the impact of inflammation on oxidative stress. The role of the endocannabinoid system and all the ways we can modulate it are also discussed.
CBD & Pain
3m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen discusses CBD and pain. This includes CBD's anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties that can help with pain conditions that might otherwise be treated with OTC drugs and opioid medications.
Interactions Between CBD & THC
2m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen talks about the interactions between CBD and THC. This set of drug interactions between components of the cannabis plant is further discussed as having the Entourage Effect. Finally, strong evidence suggests improved THC tolerability and improved efficacy relates to the synergistic activity between CBD and THC.
Cannabinoid Pharmacokinetics
6m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen explores cannabinoid pharmacokinetics. The pulmonary, gastrointestinal, and dermal categories of cannabis administration are discussed, as well as dose titration between inhaled methods and oral dosing.
Factors That Affect Oral Dosing
10m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen talks about factors that affect oral dosing. He describes how PK variability is high with oral dosing, as well as how the categories of metabolism, food affects, and formulation influence THC bioavailability and absorption rates.
Transdermal & Topical Dosing
3m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen talks about cannabinoid administration via skin. Transdermal formulations are intended to be absorbed systemically, whereas topical formulations are designed to treat skin conditions. Finally, the role for cannabinoids in a variety of inflammatory skin diseases is discussed.
Terpene Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamics
6m
In this video segment, Dr. Michael Tagen explores terpene pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The caveats of terpenes are discussed, as well as their unique pharmacology compared to cannabinoids. Finally, the current research we have is largely anecdotal, and more clinical studies are needed to better understand the processing conditions that can affect terpene content.
