Cannabidiol-Assisted Learning for Managing Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Oral cannabidiol solution (EPIDIOLEX®) administered as an adjunct to cognitive behavioral therapy. Low-dose participants receive 5 milligram/kilogram/day throughout. The intervention targets emotion regulation circuitry and symptom improvement.

The placebo mimics the appearance, smell, and taste of EPIDIOLEX®. For blinding the moderate-dose cannabidiol arm, dosing starts at 5 mg/kg/day and titrates to 10 milligram/kilogram/day (divided twice a day) after 6 days.
