Closed Allow Sativex for Fibromyalgia, CFS & Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

Closed on

Allow the use of Sativex for the treatment of Fibromyalgia, CFS & M.E. Sativex is available on the NHS for MS. It can also help with the symptoms of Fibromyalgia, CFS & ME.

There is not one specific drug that is designed for these conditions. There is little chance of finding medication to help relieve symptoms. Drugs prescribed can have damaging side effects and patients show little improvement after taking them. Sativex can relieve symptoms and should be allowed as a choice for the patient instead of opioids.
