Investigating MB-IMP for Anxiety in Autistic Adults
This study is looking at whether a marijuana-based compound called MB-IMP can help reduce anxiety in autistic adults. MB-IMP is an oil-based liquid you take by mouth, and it has mostly CBD with a small amount of THC. Researchers will compare MB-IMP to a placebo (a substance that looks the same but has no active ingredients) to see if it improves anxiety symptoms over 8 weeks. You might be able to join if you are an autistic adult between 18 and 45 years old, weigh at least 100 lbs, and are willing to follow study procedures. The study aims to enroll 108 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
