NTRR Seeks Out Alternative Cannabinoid Treatments for Pain Management

SARASOTA, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– As part of its initiative to market and develop healthier, more effective alternatives to smoking for medical marijuana patients, Neutra Corp. (OTCBB: NTRR) is currently exploring cutting-edge, alternative cannabinoid treatments for those who need it most: patients who suffer from chronic pain.

Recent studies have suggested that cannabis-derived treatments can be safe and effective in the treatment of neuropathic pain, rheumatoid arthritis and cancer pain—three notoriously difficult ailments to alleviate. Additionally, injections of synthetic cannabinoids have shown great promise in enhancing morphine’s antinociceptive effect while preventing the buildup of tolerance to the drug in patients.

With pain affecting 1.5 billion people worldwide, drugs and analgesics to treat it comprise one of the major segments of the central nervous system (CNS) therapies market. NTRR believes that cannabinoid treatments could hold the key to unlocking a whole new era of pain management, helping the company to break into the $52 billion pain management market. NTRR is seeking out potential partners who are developing breakthrough delivery systems capable of helping patients cope with chronic pain in new, more effective ways.

The company is dedicated to commercializing innovative, all-natural products to compete in the fast-growing medical marijuana sector alongside Cannabis Science Inc. (PINK: CBIS), Medical Marijuana Inc. (PINK: MJNA), HEMP Inc. (PINK: HEMP) and Growlife Inc. (PINK: PHOT).
