Delusional parasitosis, or delusory parasitosis, also known as Ekbom's syndrome, is a form of psychosis. Victims acquire a strong delusional belief that they are infested with parasites, whereas in reality no such parasites are present. Often, exposure to household cleaning products can result in a sensation known as formication.
To treat chronic pain, cannabinoids have been taken by mouth in the form of capsules or sprayed into the mouth as THC, benzopyranoperidine (BPP), cannabidiol (CBD), nabilone, dronabinol, or synthetic nitrogen THC analogs (NIB), with doses of 2.5-20 milligrams for an average of 25 days.
The Dosing Dilemma With CBD. How to dose CBD is a common question among practitioners. Indeed, preclinical and clinical research indicates an extremely wide range of doses that have been used. Although we are far from knowing what doses are ideal, taking into account pharmacogenomic variance among individuals is critical. Studies often refer to high-dose and low-dose CBD, although a review of the literature indicates considerable variability in how these are defined. For example, Zhornitsky and Potvin defined high-dose oral CBD as 150-600 mg/day.
