Does cannabidiol protect against the negative effects of THC?

Cécile Henquet et al. Br J Psychiatry. 2010 Oct.

Abstract

A recent study by Morgan and colleagues found that cannabidiol attenuates the acute cognitive effects of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). This is of interest as THC has been associated with the detrimental effects of cannabis on mental health in at-risk users, and the potency of cannabis is increasing across Europe.
