The disclosed invention is in the field of composition for alleviating or treatment of mucosal inflammation.
Sinus and nasal mucosal inflammation may be caused by food or environmental allergies, infections (viral, bacterial, fungal), laryngeal pharyngeal acid and/or bile reflux, chemical irritation (including side effects of nasally delivered medication), and climate change. The current treatment options for mucosal inflammation include saline sinus rinse and medicated nasal sprays. Plain saline sinus rinse is known to mechanically rinse away allergens and particulate matter that may irritate the sensitive nasal mucous membranes, however, does not provide anti-inflammatory or anti-microbial benefits. Medicated nasal sprays may dry out the mucous membranes of the nose, which can cause unpleasant side effects for patients and other users of the rinse. Therefore, there is a need for a composition for relieving or treating sinus and nasal mucosal inflammation without the unpleasant side effects.
Presently disclosed is a composition comprising cannabigerol, xylitol, and at least one of mullein leaf and holy basil, wherein the composition is for intranasal administration.
In some embodiments, the cannabigerol is in an amount of about 1 mg to about 20 mg. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises a carrier. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises polysorbate 80. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises sodium chloride and/or sodium bicarbonate, and an emulsifier. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises an additional cannabinoid. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises cannabidiol. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises tetrahydrocannabinol. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises cannabichromene. In some embodiments, the composition is in a powder form. In some embodiments, the composition is configured to form a nasal/sinus rinse. In some embodiments, the composition is a nasal spray.
Disclosed is a method of alleviating symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis comprising administering the composition of any one of claims 1 to 12 to a subject experiencing chronic rhinosinusitis symptoms.
Provided herein is a composition for intranasal delivery of cannabinoids. In some embodiments, the cannabinoid may be cannabigerol (CBG). The composition may be formulated as a nasal/sinus rinse or a nasal spray. In some embodiments, the formulation comprises a solid mixture, for example, a powder mixture. The solid mixture can be added to water or saline solution to form a nasal/sinus rinse or a nasal spray. The composition may be used to ameliorate, alleviate, or treat the symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis, such as sinus and nasal mucosal inflammation, and to provide anti-microbial protection of sensitive nasal mucous membranes.
Cannabigerol (CBG) is one of many cannabinoid compounds found in the plant genus Cannabis. CBG is a decarboxylated form of cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), which is the precursor of all cannabinoid compounds. Since most of the plant's produced CBGA is converted into other cannabinoid acids, such as tetrahydrocannabinol acid (THCA) and cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), the amount of CBGA in a cannabis plant is normally only about 1% with trace amounts of CBG being present due to natural decarboxylation. A larger amount of CBGA can be derived from hemp plants, especially in cultivars that have been bred to produce more CBGA/CBG. As the cannabis plant only produces cannabinoid acids they provide a good source of raw material that can be further processed, via decarboxylation, into neutral cannabinoids. Alternative processing methods, such as fermentation and other cell culture-based techniques, are also good sources of cannabinoid acids as raw materials for decarboxylation.
CBG, like CBD, is non-psychotropic and non-intoxicating. The IUPAC name of CBG is 2-[(2E)-3,7-Dimethylocta-2,6-dienyl]-5-pentyl-benzene-1,3-diol, which has the following structure:
Prior studies have shown that CBG may be useful for reducing inflammation associated with inflammatory bowel disease, reducing intraocular pressure (treating glaucoma), reducing the growth of cancer cells and tumors, treating bladder dysfunctions, treating neurodegenerative conditions (such as Huntington's disease), treating conditions attributing to neuro-inflammation, addressing mood imbalance such as depression or anxiety, alleviating pain from musculoskeletal origin, treating bacterial infections, and stimulating appetite. In addition to being an anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial agent, CBG may be useful in reducing and controlling viral, bacterial, and fungal infections.
In some embodiments, the composition comprises CBG, xylitol, and sodium chloride. The combination of CBG and xylitol in saline may reduce transmission of virus or other pathologic microorganisms by decreasing viral load in the nasal cavity and nasopharynx in addition to decreasing viral adhesion to mucous membranes. This would then make mucous membranes in nasal and sinus cavities less susceptible to viral and other microorganism penetration when moisturized with xylitol and when inflammation is decreased from CBG.
In some embodiments, the composition comprises about 1 mg to about 25 mg of CBG. In some embodiments, the composition contains about 1 mg to about 20 mg, about 1 mg to about 15 mg, about 5 mg to about 25 mg, about 5 mg to about 20 mg, about 5 mg to about 15 mg, about 5 mg to about 10 mg, or about 10 mg to about 20 mg of CBG, or any value in between the ranges listed above, including end points.

In some embodiments, the composition may also include sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate can serve as a buffering agent to make the pH of a formulation suitable for nasal mucous membranes such that it does not cause a burning sensation present in traditional saline sinus rinses. In some embodiments, the buffering agent provides a pH range of between about 5 and about 7, between about 5 and about 6, between about 6 and about 7, between about 4.9 and about 6.1, between about 4.8 and about 6.2, between about 4.7 and about 6.3, between about 4.6 and about-6.4, between about 4.5 and about 6.5, and any value in between the ranges listed, including end points.

In some embodiments, the amount of sodium bicarbonate may be about 400 mg, about 450 mg, about 500 mb, about 550 mg, or about 600 mg.
In some embodiments, the composition further comprises one or more adaptogens. Adding one or more adaptogens to CBG can further provide synergistic effects in relieving the symptoms associated with chronic rhinosinusitis and reducing mucosal inflammations. Non-limiting examples of adaptogens that can be used includes mullein leaf (Verbascum) and holy basil, a.k.a. Tulsi (Ocimum tenuflorium or Ocimum sanctum). Therefore, in some embodiments, the composition further comprises mullein leaf (Verbascum). Mullein leaf may improve mucociliary clearance so that contaminants can continue to be expelled from the nasal cavity in an efficient manner. In some embodiments, the composition further comprises holy basil, a.k.a. Tulsi (Ocimum tenuflorium or Ocimum sanctum).
Holy Basil, a.k.a. Tulsi may synergistically offer additional anti-bacterial and anti-microbial protection. Our testing also suggests that the composition results in complementary reduction of stress and anxiety, increased focus, and improved memory and cognition. The addition of adaptogens may further increase bioavailability and efficacy of CBG via transnasal absorption.

As CBG is a crystalline solid that may not readily dissolve in water, a pre-formulation including CBG and a carrier could be made. The carrier may be an emulsifier, such as polysorbate 80, which allows CBG to be dissolved in polysorbate 80 (using heat as needed). Polysorbate 80 is a non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier that is available as pharmaceutical grade and is a thick water-soluble yellow liquid. In some embodiments, polysorbate 80 can be used as a carrier to enhance the formulation and assist in dissolution of the lipophilic CBG into water. The pre-formulation should be homogeneous after mixing.
In some embodiments, the CBG and the carrier (e.g., emulsifier) may form a pre-mix. The ratio of polysorbate 80 to CBG may be from 1:1 to 100:1, such as 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 6:1, 8:1, 10:1, 20:1, 30:1, 40:1, 50:1, 60:1, 70:1, 80:1, 90:1, or 100:1. In some embodiments, the ratio of polysorbate 80 to CBG is 1:4.
Xylitol, sodium chloride, and sodium carbonate were mixed together before adding the pre-formulation of CBG and the carrier to the mixture. Appropriate amount of pre-formulation was used to mix with Xylitol, sodium chloride and sodium carbonate to form powders that can later be dissolved in appropriate amount of water to form a nasal/sinus rinse or nasal spray.
In some embodiments, the composition disclosed herein may be formulated as shelf-stable powders or tablet/pellet, which can be mixed in distilled or bottled drinking water to form a nasal/sinus rinse. The nasal/sinus rinse may be formulated for use once per day or twice per day. In some embodiments, the composition may be formulated as a nasal spray, which could be used more frequently such as 3-5 times per day. In some embodiments, the composition described above may be mixed with about 7 oz to about 9 oz, or about 7 oz to about 8 oz, or about 8 oz to about 9 oz of water to form an aqueous formulation, for example, a nasal/sinus rinse formulation.

Some embodiments provide a method for alleviating, relieving, or treating symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis by administering the composition disclosed herein to a subject experiencing chronic rhinosinusitis symptoms. In some embodiments, the composition includes CBG, xylitol, and sodium chloride. In some embodiments, the composition includes CBG, xylitol, sodium chloride, and sodium bicarbonate. In some embodiments, the composition includes CBG, polysorbate 80, xylitol, sodium chloride, and sodium bicarbonate. In some embodiments, any of the composition above may further include holy basil ocimum, mullein leaf verbascum, or both holy basil ocimum and mullein leaf Verbascum. In some embodiments, the composition may consist essentially of CBG, polysorbate 80, xylitol, sodium chloride, and sodium bicarbonate, and one or more adaptogen. In some embodiments, the adaptogen may include holy basil ocimum and/or mullein leaf verbascum.
In some embodiments, Chronic rhinosinusitis symptoms may include sinus and nasal mucosal inflammation. In some embodiments, the composition may be used to address various damaging effects of sinus and nasal mucosal inflammation. The inflammation of the mucous membranes could be from food or environmental allergies, infection (viral, bacterial, fungal), laryngeal pharyngeal acid and/or bile reflux, chemical irritation (including side effects of nasally delivered medication), and climate change. The composition can help reduce the inflammation, whether it is acute or chronic.
In some embodiments, the composition may be used to soothe nasal/sinus pain or congestion by cleansing, moisturizing, and reducing inflammation in the nasal and sinus passages naturally and comfortably. When the composition is in the powder form, the powders are mixed with distilled water to form a nasal rinse solution. Rinsing the affected nasal passages using nasal rinse solution can also contribute to developing healthier and contaminate-free nasal tissue by improving mucociliary clearance and decreasing problematic inflammation, and providing a natural anti-microbial effect without the risk of antibiotic resistance. Using the nasal rinse solution can also contribute to improvements or reduction in the symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, nasal dryness, diminished sense of smell, sinus headache, migraine headache, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, and musculoskeletal pains.
In some embodiments, the composition may result in improvements or reduction in the symptoms of chromic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinitis, nasal dryness, diminished sense of smell, sinus headache, migraine headache, TMJ pains, and/or musculoskeletal pain without the negative side effects. In some embodiments, the use of the composition may mitigate side effects of other medications.
One of the beneficial unexpected aspects included almost immediate (within 30-60 sec due to rapid transnasal mucosal delivery) results of improvement in stress and muscle tension. Also noted incidentally upon in-house testing was improvement in mood and cognition. The improvement in nasal inflammation and subsequent symptoms of nasal/sinus congestion and sinus pressure appeared to be comparable to traditional OTC intranasal steroid sprays, without the negative side effects of steroid absorption through the nasal mucous membrane. Range tested was 1 mg to 20 mg CBG per dose, and effects appeared to last longer with higher dosing, and cumulative benefits were noted. Anti-microbial benefits were also noted, with the added benefit of avoidance of antibiotic resistance.
The following compositions were explored.
