Contents of the pack and other information
1. WHAT SATIVEX IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT SATIVEX IS
Sativex is a mouth spray which contains cannabis extracts called
cannabinoids.
WHAT SATIVEX IS USED FOR
Sativex is used in multiple sclerosis (MS) to improve symptoms related
to muscle
stiffness. This is also called “spasticity”.
Spasticity means there is an increase in 'muscle tone' which makes the
muscles feel
more stiff or rigid. This means it is more difficult than normal to
move the muscle.
Sativex is used when other medicines have not helped your muscle
stiffness.
YOUR 4 WEEK TRIAL OF SATIVEX
Only a specialist doctor can start you on treatment with Sativex.
•
Before you start using Sativex your specialist doctor will do an
assessment.
This is to see how bad your muscle stiffness is. They will look at how
well
other treatments have worked.
•
You will then have a 4 week trial of Sativex. After this, your
specialist doctor
will do another assessment to see whether Sativex is helping you.
•
Only if you have shown a significant improvement in your spasticity
related
symptoms after these 4 weeks should you continue to be treated with
Sativex.
