MESQUITE, NV / ACCESSWIRE / October 15, 2018 / Cannabis Sativa, Inc. (CBDS) is pleased to announce that the United States Patent Office will issue to CBDS the US Patent number 10105343 titled "Cannabis based compositions and methods of treating hypertension" on October 23, 2018.
"We are excited to see the patent finally get issued", said CEO Mike Gravel. "Cannabis Sativa made a bold deal acquiring this pending IP in the merger acquisition of Kush in 2014, which included Kubby Patent and Licenses. This lozenge patent is the second patent to be granted resulting from that agreement, following the December 2016 issuing of our patented marijuana strain, Ecuadorian Sativa."
"This coconut oil based lozenge is unique because of its rapid onset and long term effects, and is based on our patented strain of cannabis, Ecuadorian Sativa", stated President David Tobias.
The invention relates to a Cannabis-based pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of hypertensive disorders by submucosal delivery comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable base and an effective amount of at least one cannabinoid or endocannabinoid containing extract of a cloned hybrid of the plant Cannabis sativa, subspecies sativa and Cannabis sativa, subspecies indica of the CTSX-ISS lineage.
Cannabis Sativa plans on developing the lozenge through partnering with a California licemse holder and subsequent licensing agreements. "We envision entering into the marketplace in the San Francisco Bay market, where this lozenge was conceived and well received in the pioneering days of legalized medical marijuana", Tobias continued. "These patents help greatly in standardizing the development of our intellectual properties."
This patent was filed April 30, /2010 by Steve Kubby. The Company pays homage to his vision and foresight.
