'''In regards to neuropathic pain there are studies that suggest the use of medical cannabis as a possible form of pain relief. Neuropathic pain can be described, "... as pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system". This pain is typically treated by medications such as, "...anti-depressants, anti-epileptics, and opioids.. meta analysis of more commonly used neuropathic pain agents demonstrated a number needed to treat ranging from 3.6 (TCAs) to 7.7 (pregabalin)". Medications used for neuropathic pain can come with uncomfortable side effects. However with a NNT of 5.6 cannabis presents a possibility of treatment with its levels falling under the treatment range criteria and a smaller presence of side effects. The data results from a study using an inhalant form of cannabis confirm pain relief for neuropathic pain. Due to the small duration and population size of these results, the form of cannabis treatment can not be entirely confirmed .'''
