Researchers Study Marijuana’s Effect on Veterans with Chronic PTSD | MAPSHow does smoking marijuana affect military veterans with chronic PTSD? That’s the big question behind a clinical trial that just enrolled its first participant this month. The trial is being conducted at two locations—Scottsdale Research Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, and Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. It will evaluate the safety and efficacy of four different potencies of marijuana to manage symptoms of PTSD in 76 U.S. veterans.Both study locations in Phoenix and Baltimore are currently recruiting adult military veterans who experienced trauma during military service. Study volunteers will complete 17 outpatient study visits to the respective clinics over 12 weeks and a six-month follow-up visit. Study visits occur at Scottsdale Research Institute and Johns Hopkins University. For more information on the clinical trial, email [email protected] (SRI-Phoenix) or call 410-550-0050 (JHU-Baltimore).full article [image via] -- source link
