Interventions

  • Cannabidiol (CBD) — DRUG
    Patients will be dispensed enough 25mg cannabidiol (CBD) Orally Disintegrating Tablets (ODT) to take a standard dose of 50mg three times daily for 84 days.
  • Placebo — DRUG
    25mg Placebo ODT looks like the cannabidiol (CBD) Orally Disintegrating Tablets (ODT), but contains no active ingredients.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to see if cannabidiol (CBD) orally dissolving tablets (ODTs) can lessen pain, improve function, and improve patient satisfaction in cases of knee osteoarthritis. CBD comes from the cannabis plant and is non-psychoactive (i.e. does not produce a 'high' or altered mental state) as compared to tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), another compound found in cannabis. Researchers are studying different forms of CBD for potential use in treating pain, inflammation, and illnesses.
