Abstract A randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial utilizing vaporized cannabis containing placebo and 6.7% and 2.9% delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) was performed in 42 subjects with central neuropathic pain related to spinal cord injury and disease.

Dose-dependent improvement in pain score was evident across all pain scale elements. Using mixed model regression,...
