Is CBD a promising therapy for mental health disorders?

Original date: 29 September 2022

Duration: 50 mins

According to the WHO, mental health conditions are increasing worldwide. Mainly because of demographic changes, there has been a 13% rise in mental health conditions and substance use disorders in the last decade. Mental health conditions now cause 1 in 5 years lived with disability. CBD is being studied for potential efficacy in several pathologies, whereby CNS diseases is the most promising area, with CBD already approved for the treatment of several epilepsy syndromes and with studies ongoing in other neurological disorders. Scientific evidence suggests that CBD is a promising candidate for a novel approach to the treatment of mental health disorders. The most promising preliminary findings are related to psychotic symptoms and anxiety.

In this webinar, experts will discuss the potential of CBD in early drug development for mental health disorders, and the need for new effective treatments, especially in pathologies which are very widespread.
