    Not to beat a dead horse…..

    Is there a big difference between cannabinoids coming from HEMP and those coming from WEED  when it comes to the FDA and their involvement with new infused drugs?  I know the obvious that one is classified as schedule 1 drug and illegal (technically)

    I assume the wording “derived” may be a little confusing to me. When it is stated that cannabinoids derived from hemp I have to question if this is a big enough difference for the FDA.

    @Perry 
    Could you explain the hydrogen bonding effect that you mentioned.  What exactly does hydrogen bonding do with relaxing the hair.  

    Assuming a relaxer would be used on an African/African American hair would you need more or stronger hydrogen bonding to occur?

    @Microformulation 
    Thanks for the info…  My client didn’t want to duplicate the GW product but was using this as an example that the FDA is suddenly open to acceptable CBD.  I didn’t think so since it wasn’t in the news and such.  They want to use the buzz words that pharm grade with out the check and balances and research.

    Just for my reference…. the GW product has a CBD “derivative” what is the difference in this derivative and CBD?

    thanks for the info….

    I didn’t think the FDA was in any rush to work with CBD companies or CBD pharm companies  but my client kept telling me the FDA is working with a pharm company named GP pharmaceuticals on an epilepsy style drug…

    I rather believe my client is using the pharm grade as a buzz word more than anything.  So if something is used as a topical it would be considered a cosmetic therefore not a pharmaceutical product.  For pharmaceutical product (cream, lotion, pills, etc) you have to submit an application with the FDA to be approved…… correct????

    I was working on making clear formulations with thick liquids silicones and PG. I got this instrument and it was very, very reliable.  I spoke to the company experts and they were very helpful.

    I am talking about CBD oil right now.  I am sure this will expand.  I am California.  Any information to give me an idea would help.  Are there claims of people making pharmaceutical grade topicals for prescription ????
