What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
cannabidiol (CBD)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a way to help people quit smoking by reducing stress and withdrawal discomfort.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 study with only 90 people, so results may not apply broadly. CBD may not significantly affect stress or withdrawal, and side effects are possible.
