Cobroxin

[Guest guest]

Has anyone heard of this new product for moderate to severe pain, called

COBROXIN ( http://www.cobroxin.com) . It is non-opiate, non addictive, and is

not a prescription. It recently just became available for purchase. It is made

from cobra venom, which is used in chinese medicine, so i figured maybe someone

here has heard of this.

If so, please respond with some information if anyone has used it and the

outcomes. I purchased it, but havent started it yet. I suffer from bad migraines

and headaches so that is why i bought it.

 

 

here is the history of cobroxin that is on the website.

History of Cobroxin

In ancient China, cobra venom saw its primary use in the treatment of cancer and

arthritis. Reportedly the venom was used to treat liver cancer, lung cancer,

esophageal cancer, skin cancer, and leukemia. In the Indian Unani system of

medicine, cobra venom has been used as a tonic, aphrodisiac, hepatic stimulant

and for revival in collapsed conditions. In India and China, such venoms are

administered at specialized medical centers and for an extensive array of

applications.

 

Today in Traditional , cobra venom sees its application mainly

to the control of pain. A purified neurotoxin from the Chinese cobra, Naja naja

atra, was introduced to market as an analgesic by Kunming Institute of Zoology

in 1978. A modified version of this neurotoxin (Fu Fang Ke Tong Ning) was

developed and put into market in 2000. The new drug became a mixture of

cobrotoxin, ibuprofen, and Qu Ma Du. Qu Ma Du (believed to be Tramadol) is a

narcotic analgesic with low addictive potential. The new drug takes effects

faster, long lasting and is safe. This drug is now also used as for treatment of

drug addiction in the Chinese province of Yunnan.

 

Cobroxin in American Medicine

The medical application of cobra venom was incorporated into the Materia Medica

in the 1800s along with several other snake venoms. In the early 1900s, Calmette

(of BCG fame) investigated the use of cobra venom in the treatment of cancer in

mice. It was subsequently applied clinically to subjects with cancer where it

established a reputation in France for relieving pain. In 1936, Macht, a

researcher within the pharmaceutical company, Westcott, Hynson and Dunning,

showed that cobra venom, when injected in minute doses, produced analgesic

effects that were superior to morphine in activity. In fact, cobra venom was

employed when morphine was no longer effective or when patients became addicted

to the opiate. Cobra venom proved to be 80% effective in the clinic for the

treatment of headache and arthritis pain and it allowed long-term control of

chronic pain conditions without addictive problems. A feature of this venom

product was its slow onset of analgesic activity however its activity is

prolonged. In 1938, acceptance of homeopathic medicine including cobra venom was

incorporated into the Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act sponsored by Royal Copeland. In

the latter part of the last century cobra venoms were studied for the treatment

of severe pain but also rheumatism, trigeminal neuralgia, asthma, ocular

therapy, and neuroses.

 

Today, Cobra venom is being studied for treating various forms of pain, cancers,

autoimmune and neurological disorders. The Nutra Pharma subsidiary,

ReceptoPharm, and other researchers have definitively proven that cobra venom

contains constituents that control pain and inflammation. Researchers in China

are examining the possibility that cobra venom can be used to treat drug

addiction. The National Cancer Institute in Italy has participated in Chinese

clinical trials to assess the efficacy of Cobra toxins in controlling post

operative pain and moderate to severe cancer pain. More recently

alpha-cobratoxin, one of the molecules found in cobra venom, has been reported

to kill mesothelioma and lung cancer cells, 75 years after the first reports in

the 1933 issue of the medical journal Lancet.

I see the word homeopathic mentioned on this website. That means that they

can put whatever name they want on it, but on the inside it is little more

than water. You can take the homeopathic approach and say that's all that is

needed, and I won't argue with that, but otherwise I am unmoved by this

website. They're just selling a new packaging with a bottle of water inside.
