“This paper presents a shared perspective from scientists and clinicians seeking to harness the therapeutic potential of cannabis while addressing Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) through reproducible scientific findings.

Rather than blocking CNR1 receptors, which may induce hypodopaminergia, we propose a pro-dopaminergic strategy using a natural nutraceutical formulation designed to enhance dopamine release and upregulate D2 receptor mRNA, thereby increasing D2 receptor density.

Given the failure of CNR1 antagonists such as Rimonabant, we argue for an opposite approach: restoring dopamine balance through CNR1 stimulation rather than inhibition.”
