As policies on the production and sale of cannabis become more liberalized across the United States and internationally, increasing numbers of individuals have begun to consume it. Given that cannabis exposure can result in a cannabis use disorder for some, more people are likely to develop cannabis use disorders and, in fact, rates of such disorders have increased in the population. Currently, there are no proven pharmacotherapies to treat cannabis use disorder. A question has lingered, however, as to whether certain cannabis plant derivatives – notably cannabidiol (more commonly known as CBD) – often publicized as a treatment for a wide variety of medical conditions, could be effective in treating cannabis use disorder. This rigorous clinical trial addressed this question.
