“The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical, histological, hematological and oxidative stress effects of cannabidiol (CBD) in mice with induced oral mucositis.
RESULTS:
In the clinical evaluation, the groups treated with CBD showed less severity of oral lesions compared with the positive control at both experimental times. The intensity of the inflammatory response was also lower in the groups treated with this drug, but there was no statistically significant difference when compared with the positive control. With regard to erythrocyte, leukocyte and platelet counts and antioxidant enzyme activity, the groups treated with CBD showed better results, but only some of these variables showed statistically significant differences.
CONCLUSIONS:
CBD seems to exert an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity favoring a faster resolution of oral mucositis in this animal model.”
