A Study of Inhaled Cannabidiol in Healthy Occasional Cannabis Users

Официальное название

A Randomized, Triple Blinded Cross-over Placebo Controlled Study of Effects of Inhaled Cannabidiol in Healthy Occasional Cannabis Users

Обзор

The purposes of this study are 1) to determine if the administration of different low doses of CBD (5 mg, 20 mg, 50 mg and 100 mg) result in detectable subjective pleasant drug effect compared to placebo and 2) to qualitatively explore whether low dose CBD is associated with effects that are not detected with the available research tools.

Подробное описание

Cannabis contains over 100 cannabinoids, the two most prominent being Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). A growing body of evidence exists surrounding the effects of both THC and CBD, however, less is known about the specific effects of CBD concentrations alone. Most existing data regarding the effects of CBD come from studies where this compound is administered in high doses in a therapeutic context, and where the subject can be administered either CBD, THC or both together. These contexts are not representative of the current use by many consumers. Indeed, several available products contain CBD at much lower doses. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the acute behavioral and biological effects of low doses of CBD (between 5-100mg) and placebo in occasional cannabis users. Potential outcomes not detected with usual assessment tools designed to evaluate THC-induced effects will also be explored.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Cannabis, placebo
  Eligible participant will be randomize 1:1:1:1:1 to receive placebo, CBD (5mg, 20mg, 50mg and 100mg). Only one research product will be inhaled for each visit. The sequence will depend on the assigned randomization group.
