</div></div>WINNIPEG, Manitoba, Feb. 15 -- Pain, anxiety, and disability were significantly reduced with the marijuana derivative nabilone (Cesamet) used for fibromyalgia, researchers here said.<p style="font-family:'BerninaSansWeb-Light', Arial, sans-serif;color:rgb(102,102,102);">In a small trial, four weeks of off-label nabilone reduced mean scores on the 10-point Visual Analog Scale of pain by 2.0 points from baseline (P=0.02), reported Ryan Q. Skrabek, M.D., and colleagues at the University of Manitoba, in the February issue of theJournal of Pain.
