Researchers at the University of Arizona have found that cannabis terpenes, the compounds responsible for the plantβs aroma, may also help relieve fibromyalgia pain in a way similar to traditional pain medications. Early studies suggest that these natural compounds could offer a promising new treatment option, especially for those seeking alternatives to opioids. While more research is needed, these findings add to growing interest in how different components of cannabis may work together to support pain relief.
A recently completed study found that certain terpenes in Cannabis sativa are effective at relieving post-surgical and fibromyalgia pain in preclinical models.
