Have you tried full-spectrum cannabis gummies for overall RA pain?
Many myRAteam members have experimented with cannabis products, including CBD, for pain relief. One member shared, "I take CBD oil. It works!" Another mentioned, "I'm supplementing my biologic infusions with dietary adjustments, mild exercise, hot tubbing, massage, and a little cannabis now and then."
Some members have found success with oral CBD products. A myRAteam member noted, "My neighbor also has RA and he takes a CBD tincture with 1,200 milligrams."
However, experiences vary. Some members haven't found relief with CBD products, with one saying, "I have the oil for RA, but I don't feel that it helps." Research on cannabis for RA is still limited. Studies in animals show CBD may block arthritis progression and reduce inflammation, but more research is needed to confirm benefits in people. Two clinical trials are currently studying cannabis for managing RA pain and inflammation.
Before trying cannabis gummies or any CBD product, talk to your doctor. CBD can interact with common RA medications including:
- Corticosteroids like prednisone
- NSAIDs like naproxen and celecoxib
- Xeljanz (tofacitinib)
Side effects may include changes in appetite, mood, drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea, or diarrhea.
