Le CBD n'est pas une substance dopante: décret du 27 décembre 2018 Enfin un texte français sur le cannibidiol conforme au droit européen, confirmant que le CBD n'est pas un dopant ! Un Décret n° 2018-1283 du 27 décembre 2018 propose en effet la mise à jour de la liste des substances interdites dans le sport qui, sans surprise, exclut de nouveau le cannabidiol (CBD) des produits dopants ! Ce texte précise en effet: ''Les cannabinoïdes suivants sont interdits : - Cannabinoïdes naturels, par ex. cannabis, haschisch, et marijuana. - Cannabinoïdes synthétiques par ex. Δ9-tétrahydrocannabinol (THC) et autres cannabimimétiques. Sauf : - Cannabidiol.'' Rappelons que la cour d’appel d'Aix-en-Provence a [...]

Abstract : LSD is one of the most potent psychoactive agents known, producing dramatic alterations of consciousness after submilligram (≥20 g) oral doses. Following the accidental discovery of its potent psychoactive effects in 1943, it was supplied by Sandoz Laboratories as an experimental drug that might be useful as an adjunct for psychotherapy, or to give psychiatrists insight into the mental processes in their patients. The finding of serotonin in the mammalian brain in 1953, and its structural resemblance to LSD, quickly led [...]

DOI 10.3917/psyt.233.0125 https://www.cairn.info/revue-psychotropes-2017-3-page-125.htm Résumé : L’utilisation thérapeutique des substances psychédéliques a été concomitante de la découverte du LSD et de la Mescaline après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ces utilisations thérapeutiques concernaient, à l’origine, essentiellement « l’accompagnement » des psychothérapies (thérapies psycholytiques), le traitement des addictions (alcool, puis opiacés) et, du fait de leurs capacités anxiolytiques et antidépressives, la prise en charge des troubles psychologiques post-traumatiques, les dépressions résistantes, les pathologies obsessionnelles et psychosomatiques (douleurs, migraines…) et l’accompagnement des fins [...]

Van HELL, Arno HAZEKAMP BMC Pharmacol Toxicol, 2014, 15, 58 Published online 2014 Oct 16. doi: 10.1186/2050-6511-15-58 PMCID: PMC4274767 PMID: 25319497 Abstract Background Significant interest has emerged in the therapeutic and interactive effects of different cannabinoids. Cannabidiol (CBD) has been shown to have anxiolytic and antipsychotic effects with high doses administered orally. We report a series of studies conducted to determine the vaporisation efficiency of high doses of CBD, alone and in combination with ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), to achieve faster onset effects in experimental and clinical [...]

Tomasz DZIERZANOWSKI Cancers (Basel), 2019, 11, 2 Abstract There is an increased interest in the use of cannabinoids in the treatment of symptoms in cancer and palliative care patients. Their multimodal action, in spite of limited efficacy, may make them an attractive alternative, particularly in patients with multiple concomitant symptoms of mild and moderate intensity. There is evidence to indicate cannabis in the treatment of pain, spasticity, seizures, sleep disorders, nausea and vomiting, and Tourette syndrome. Although the effectiveness of cannabinoids is limited, it was confirmed in [...]

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 2019, 8, 89, 90-96. doi: 10.1016/j.pnpbp.2018.08.030 Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by persistent deficits in social communication, restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities and often intellectual disabilities. ASD has a number of prevalent co-morbidities, such as sleep disorders, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and epilepsy. No effective treatment for the core symptoms of ASD is currently available. There is increasing interest in cannabinoids, especially cannabidiol (CBD), as monotherapy or add-on treatment for the core symptoms and co-morbidities [...]
