In an historic resolution, the World Health Organization (WHO) Expert Committee on Drug Dependence just recommended that “preparations considered to be pure CBD should not be scheduled within the International Drug Control Conventions.”
Some key findings from the WHO:
- There are no case reports of abuse or dependence relating to the use of pure CBD.”
- “No public health problems have been associated with CBD use.”
- “CBD has been found to be generally well tolerated with a good safety profile.”
- “There is no evidence that CBD is liable to similar abuse and similar ill-effects as substances…such as cannabis or THC.”
