Satyux Drug Information | Cannabis extract
Nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord allow small electrical messages to travel between your brain and muscles. Nerve fibers and neurons are covered and protected by a protein called myelin, which helps transmit nerve messages quickly. In multiple sclerosis (MS), this protective membrane (myelin) is damaged, which means that the nerve fibers are unable to control their muscles, and this condition can cause symptoms such as tremors or spasms of some muscles. Some muscles may also become stiffer, which is called spasticity or muscle stiffness. Cannabis extract (cannabis or marijuana) under the brand name Sativex, which is in the form of a spray, is used to relieve the symptoms of muscle spasms in people with MS.
This medicine can help patients with MS to move their muscles more easily and with less pain. Cannabis extract can not repair myelin damage; But by affecting some neurotransmitters in the brain, it controls nerve messages to the muscles. Savitex is used with other medicines to relieve muscle stiffness and should only be prescribed by a doctor to a patient.
