@RondaC, CBD will not treat pouchitis. It’s no substitute for Cipro, flagyl, or biologics. However, I have found CBD very helpful for the insomnia that has long plagued me and it also relaxes me with no sedative effects. So while it won’t treat pouchitis, it can have other beneficial effects—at least that’s been my experience. (I’m fortunate enough to live in a state where medical cannabis and related products can be purchased legally.) Check with your medical care providers, but mine are fine with this. Good luck!

I use a CBD cream from Trim Healthy Mama called Chillax.  I put some on my abdomen at night (about 1/4 teaspoon or less). I think it relaxes my pouch and helps me sleep better - but not relax it to the point of causing incontinence. And since I am at the menopause stage, I find it helps me with night sweats.

I costs around $45 a jar and you can only get it from the THM store.
