Intentional cannabis use to reduce crack cocaine use in a Canadian setting: A longitudinal analysis.

Image result for Addict Behav.

“No effective pharmacotherapies exist for the treatment of crack cocaine use disorders. Emerging data suggests that cannabinoids may play a role in reducing cocaine-related craving symptoms. This study investigated the intentional use of cannabis to reduce crack use among people who use illicit drugs (PWUD).

A period of intentional cannabis use to reduce crack use was associated with decreased frequency of crack use in subsequent periods among PWUD.”
