Description:
NEW CANNABIS TABLET FORMULATIONS AND COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS

OF MAKING THE SAME CROSS REFERENCE TO OTHER RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority to United States Provisional Application Serial Number 62/366,517 filed on July 25, 2016, which is hereby incorporated in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to the cannabis industry. In particular, this disclosure relates to compositions and formulations which are suitable for making tablets along with methods for making and using the same.

BACKGROUND

The word "cannabis" refers to a genus of flowering plants. Plants of genus cannabis include several species, including Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis. There is a long history of cultivating plants of genus cannabis for hemp fibers, seeds and seed oils, medicinal purposes, and recreational activities.

According to some accounts, cannabis is composed of at least 483 known chemical compounds, which include cannabinoids, terpenoids, flavonoids, nitrogenous compounds, amino acids, proteins, glycoproteins, enzymes, sugars and related compounds, hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, acids, fatty acids, esters, lactones, steroids, terpenes, non-cannabinoid phenols, vitamins, and pigments.

Cannabinoids are of particular interest for research and commercialization. Most extractions of cannabis plant matter aim to extract cannabinoids, particularly

tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) . THC is useful for relieving pain, treating glaucoma, and relieving nausea. THC is also gaining immense popularity as a recreational drug substance. Usually, cannabinoids are extracted from the cannabis plant as part of a crude mixture, combined with other chemical compounds found in the cannabis plant.

Cannabinoid extracts are used in a number of applications and methods of administration. However, many times the extract is a liquid with a thick, viscous consistency making the extract difficult to work with. A relatively dry form of cannabis known as "shatter" often has other compounds that may effective the activity of the desired cannabinoid or cannabinoids. Shatter still lacks versatility for administration and formulation purposes as well.

Despite developments in preparing extractions of cannabis, very little progress has been made in formulating commercial tablets or preparing compositions suitable for making tablets. Making tablets with cannabis extracts is complicated because the chemical variability across different cannabis plants makes it difficult to determine how to introduce cannabis extracts into the tablets. As a result, the edible cannabis industry faces significant problems formulating tablets with the desired physical and chemical properties. Accordingly, there exists a need for new methods of making compressed (e.g., tablet) compositions.

Example 64

15 g of a cannabinoid oil comprising THC and CBD was combined with 30 g of ethanol. 85 g of a powder comprising sorbitol and microcrystalline cellulose, e.g. , microcrystalline cellulose known as Diapac, was measured out and spread over a flat surface. The ethanolic solution was loaded into a sprayer and sprayed over the powder. A fan circulating air was used to evaporate the ethanol. The dried powder was then mixed resulting in a homogenous, flowable powder. The mass percent was calculated by dividing the mass of the cannabinoid oil by the total mass of the dried powder.

(15 g cannabinoid oil)/(15 g cannabinoid oil + 85 g powder) x 1 00% = 15%
