Study Summary

This trial will study the effects of cannabis use on the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and endogenous opioid system (EOS) in adolescents. The goal is to identify biomarkers that may help distinguish youth who relapse from those who remain sober.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adolescents aged 14 to 25 who use cannabis at least twice a week over the past month. It's not open to those using other illicit drugs or opioids recently, with current psychosis, risk of suicide, intellectual deficiencies that affect consent understanding, without internet access for Zoom, or if they're intoxicated during evaluation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is exploring how regular cannabis use affects young people's natural cannabinoid and opioid systems. By monitoring these biological markers in adolescents with Cannabis Use Disorder, researchers aim to identify patterns that could predict relapse or sustained sobriety.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves observation and behavioral intervention rather than medication, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience psychological discomfort discussing their substance use habits.
