Primary outcomePrimary: Mood Scale - Subscale 'Feeling High' — 4.35; 2.48; 0.39; 6.55 units on a scale VAS 1-100 mm
Summary
The objective of this study is to assess the effects of oral cannabidiol (CBD; 0, 200, 400, 800 mg) on smoked marijuana's (0, 5.6% THC) subjective, reinforcing, cognitive, and cardiovascular effects. This experiment is expected to reveal CBD's intrinsic effects when combined with placebo marijuana, as well as its ability to modulate the behavioral effects of active marijuana.
