Could CBD calm compulsions? small study investigates

NCT ID NCT04978428

Summary

This small, early-stage study tested whether a prescription CBD medication (Epidiolex) could safely reduce symptoms in adults with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and related conditions like hair-pulling and hoarding. Four participants took the medication for two weeks while researchers tracked changes in their symptoms and daily functioning. The goal was to gather initial evidence on whether this approach shows promise for easing these challenging conditions.
