BACKGROUND TO THE ART The current means of combating migraine attacks include simple analgesics such as aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) and paracetamol, taken at the earliest signs of an attack [1,2,3]. Aspirin, paracetamol and phenacetin have long been among the most

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates generally to a method of modulating substance P by compounds containing calcium sulfate, particularly syngenite, gorgeyite and gypsum, and more specifically, to the synthesis of such compounds as well as their use to treat a variety of conditions

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Although it is often said that the common cold is the most prevalent disease among humankind, it is also true that chronic pain is an affliction that is almost as prevalent. Chronic headaches, muscle pain, joint pain, and the like are experienced by most individuals, and

BACKGROUND Cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2, are part of the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which consists of cannabinoid receptors, endogenous endocannabinoids anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachindonoylglycerol (2-AG) and the hydrolytic enzymes fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol

This invention relates to the prevention of the acute post-alcoholic intoxication state, commonly called the alcohol "hangover". A "hangover" results from ingesting a relatively excessive quantity of alcohol, a term understood to refer to alcoholic beverages as well as any particular alcohol found
