Cannabidiol is readily extracted from hemp and different strains of marijuana. Hemp crops have largely been valued for the fiber and seeds and used to manufacture rope, canvas, paper, oils, biodegradable plastics, food products and clothing. New emphasis around the medicinal potential of CBD has invigorated interest in the cultivation of hemp. Marijuana and hemp, while both of the cannabis family, have [[phytochemical]] (cannabinoid) components that are nearly the opposite of each other. Most marijuana strains contain a high level of THC and a low level of CBD, while hemp has high levels of CBD with minimal traces of THC.
Selective breeding by growers in the USA dramatically lowered the CBD content of cannabis; their customers preferred varietals that were more mind-altering due to a higher THC, lower CBD content.<ref name=autogenerated1>{{cite news| url=http://articles.latimes.com/2012/sep/13/local/la-me-customized-marijuana-20120914 | work=Los Angeles Times | first=Lee | last=Romney | title=On the frontier of medical pot to treat boy's epilepsy | date=13 September 2012}}</ref> To meet the demands of medical cannabis patients, growers are currently developing more CBD-rich strains.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/8080247/The-rise-of-high-CBD-marijuana-Cannabis.html | location=London | work=The Daily Telegraph | first1=Alastair | last1=Good | title=Growing marijuana that won't get you high | date=26 October 2010}}</ref>


While the recreational practice of smoking marijuana was amplified in youthful sub-cultures in the U.S. from the 1970's-forward, marijuana and hemp plants have a legacy dating back centuries. Going into the years 2000 and forward, interest in cultivating medical marijuana has increased interest in the production of greater varieties of industrial, recreational and therapeutic cannabis crops. To produce these varieties, cannabis growers cross-bred strains to create a wider range in the makeup of cannabinoid combinations. Strains were also sought after on the "street market" that were produced by growers who lowered the CBD content of cannabis in order to boost the psychoactive effect of it's THC component.<ref name=autogenerated1>{{cite news| url=http://articles.latimes.com/2012/sep/13/local/la-me-customized-marijuana-20120914 | work=Los Angeles Times | first=Lee | last=Romney | title=On the frontier of medical pot to treat boy's epilepsy | date=13 September 2012}}</ref>

But gradually, discoveries of numerous "non-high-producing" cannabinoids such as cannabidiol (CBD), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), cannabidivarin (CBDV) as well as cannabinoid acids such as tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) and cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) have been studied<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors=Izzo AA, Borrelli F, Capasso R, Di Marzo V, Mechoulam R |title=Non-psychotropic plant cannabinoids: new therapeutic opportunities from an ancient herb |journal=Trends Pharmacol.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of at least 113 active cannabinoids identified in cannabis.[5][6] It is a major phytocannabinoid, accounting for up to 40% of the plant's extract.[7] CBD is considered to have a wide scope of potential medical applications - due to clinical reports showing the lack of side effects, particularly a lack of psychoactivity (as is typically associated with ∆9-THC), and non-interference with several psychomotor learning and psychological functions.

Research

Epilepsy

Dravet syndrome is a rare form of epilepsy that is difficult to treat. It is a catastrophic form of intractable epilepsy that begins in infancy. Initial seizures are most often prolonged events and in the second year of life other seizure types begin to emerge.[8] A number of high profile and anecdotal reports have sparked interest in treatment of Dravet syndrome with cannabidiol.[9]

Some cannabis/hemp extract preparations containing CBD are marketed as dietary supplements and claim efficacy against Dravet Syndrome. One such preparation is marketed under the tradename Charlotte's Web Hemp Extract.[10][11] Blended/suspended in oil, the supplement contains 0.3% THC[12] (see Legal status below, classified as hemp).

GW Pharmaceuticals is seeking FDA approval to market a liquid formulation of pure plant-derived CBD, under the trade name Epidiolex (containing 99% cannabidiol and less than 0.10% Δ9-THC) as a treatment for Dravet syndrome. Epidiolex was granted fast-track status and is in late stage trials following positive early results from the drug.[9][13][14][15][16]

A 2014 review stated that cannabidiol has been claimed, anecdotally, to be of benefit in helping people with epilepsy. Information in the review stated that there is no established mechanism of action and the lack of high-quality evidence in this area precluded conclusions being drawn.[17]

A newer 2016 review in The New England Journal of Medicine states that since 2013, data has been collected on patients with severe epilepsy (Dravet’s syndrome and the Lennox–Gastaut syndrome). Among 137 patients treated with Epidiolex (qualifies chemically as hemp, see Legal status below), the median reduction in the number of seizures was 54%.[18]

Schizophrenia

A 2016 Leweke et al. review stated that THC-dominant cannabis carries the highest risk for psychotic disorders and an increased risk of psychosis. In contrast, cannabidiol (CBD) produced the reduction of psychotic symptoms due to a significant increase of anandamide levels. This supports the hypothesis that cannabidiol exerts its antipsychotic properties by a moderate inhibition of the FAAH enzyme (which is known to break down anandamide). Data on the antipsychotic effects of cannabidiol in schizophrenia is still limited, but with promising initial results and a lack of side-effects. With current trials limited to 6 weeks of treatment at maximum, information on long-term efficacy and tolerability is not available yet.[19]

CBD clearly reversed synthetic THC (Nabilone induced) psychoactive effects. CBD had opposite effects to THC on activation of the striatum, prefrontal cortex and medial temporal cortex.[20]

Safety

CBD safety in humans has been studied in multiple small studies, suggesting that it is well tolerated at doses of up to 1500 mg/day (p.o.) or 30 mg (i.v.).[21]

Pharmacodynamics

Cannabidiol has a very low affinity for CB1 and CB2 receptors but acts as an indirect antagonist of their agonists.[22][23] While one would assume that this would cause cannabidiol to reduce the effects of THC, it may potentiate THC's effects by increasing CB1 receptor density or through another CB1-related mechanism.[24] It may also extend the duration of the effects of THC via inhibition of the cytochrome P-450-3A and 2C enzymes.[25]

Recently, it was found to be an antagonist at the putative new cannabinoid receptor, GPR55, a GPCR expressed in the caudate nucleus and putamen.[26] Cannabidiol has also been shown to act as a 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist,[27] an action which may be involved in its antidepressant,[28][29] anxiolytic,[29][30] and neuroprotective[31][32] effects. Cannabidiol is an allosteric modulator of μ and δ-opioid receptors.[33] Cannabidiol's pharmacological effects have also been attributed to PPAR-γ receptor agonism and intracellular calcium release.[7]

Research suggests that CBD may exert some of its pharmacological action through its inhibition of FAAH, which may in turn increase the levels of endocannabinoids, such as anandamide, produced by the body.[7] It has also been speculated that some of the metabolites of CBD have pharmacological effects that contribute to the biological activity of CBD.[34]

Pharmacokinetic interactions

There is some preclinical evidence to suggest that cannabidiol may reduce THC clearance, modestly increasing THC's plasma concentrations resulting in a greater amount of THC available to receptors, increasing the effect of THC in a dose-dependent manner.[35][36] Despite this, the available evidence in humans suggests no significant effect of CBD on THC plasma levels.[37]

Multiple studies have shown that the purported negative cognitive side effects caused by THC can be mitigated by regular CBD consumption.[38] These findings bolster the theorized pharmacokinetic interactions that cannabidiol reduces THC clearance.

Pharmaceutical preparations

Nabiximols (USAN, trade name Sativex) is an aerosolized mist for oral administration containing a near 1:1 ratio of CBD and THC. The drug was approved by Canadian authorities in 2005 to alleviate pain associated with multiple sclerosis.[39][40][41] Epidiolex, a drug with cannabidiol as its active pharmaceutical ingredient, received orphan drug status in the United States for treatment of Dravet syndrome in July 2015.[42]

Epidiolex is an oil formulation of CBD extracted from the cannabis plant undergoing clinical trials for refractory epilepsy syndromes.[43]

Chemistry

Cannabidiol is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as pentane. At room temperature, it is a colorless crystalline solid.[44] In strongly basic media and the presence of air, it is oxidized to a quinone.[45] Under acidic conditions it cyclizes to THC.[46] The synthesis of cannabidiol has been accomplished by several research groups.[47][48][49]

Biosynthesis

Cannabis produces CBD-carboxylic acid through the same metabolic pathway as THC, until the last step, where CBDA synthase performs catalysis instead of THCA synthase.[50]

Cannabidiol is readily extracted from hemp and different strains of marijuana. Hemp crops have largely been valued for the fiber and seeds and used to manufacture rope, canvas, paper, oils, biodegradable plastics, food products and clothing. New emphasis around the medicinal potential of CBD has invigorated interest in the cultivation of hemp.

Going into the years 2000 and forward, interest in cultivating medical marijuana has increased interest in the production of greater varieties of industrial, recreational and therapeutic cannabis crops. To produce these varieties, cannabis growers cross-bred strains to create a wider range in the makeup of cannabinoid combinations. Strains were also sought after on the "street market" that were produced by growers who lowered the CBD content of cannabis in order to boost the psychoactive effect of it's THC component.[51]

But gradually, discoveries of numerous "non-high-producing" cannabinoids such as cannabidiol (CBD), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), cannabidivarin (CBDV) as well as cannabinoid acids such as tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA) and cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) have been studied[52] and regarded as having potential health benefits.

Entering into the medical cannabis industry in Colorado, the Stanley Brothers began breeding high-CBD cannabis strains in 2009. They sought benefits specifically for patients who didn't want THC-produced psycho-activity. The Stanley's CBD project became known as the Charlotte's Web breeding project leading to 5-year-old Charlotte Figi's dramatic success in her battle with intractable epilepsy.

This story gained national media attention and thus more growers are increasingly developing more CBD-rich strains.[53] Today, even though the flowers (buds) of the Charlotte's Web breed would normally be associated with marijuana, because of the low THC content, it is cultivated and certified as hemp[54] in Colorado and marketed as a dietary supplement.

Companies such as Medical Marijuana, Inc., makers of Real Scientific Hemp Oil (RSHO), are emerging in other states such as California. As reported by ABC 10 News, the all-natural, non-GMO hemp-based cannabidiol (CBD) oil product is now approved by the government of Brazil for import with approved in-country documentation, making Brazil the largest single client for the San Diego-based company.[55]

Multiple states in the U.S. provide for lawful cultivation of hemp. Statutes provide permission to cultivate commonly for the purposes of academic or agricultural research programs within state institutions of higher education. States such as Maine, Maryland, Montana, North Dakota, South Carolina, and Oregon authorize industrial hemp production and possession, and commerce in industrial hemp commodities and products.[56]

Several industrial hemp varieties can be legally cultivated in western Europe. A variety such as "Fedora 17" has a cannabinoid profile consistently around 1% cannabidiol (CBD) with THC less than 0.1%.[57]

Cannabidiol is not scheduled by the Convention on Psychotropic Substances. CBD does not cause the "high" associated with the ∆9-THC in marijuana. As the legal landscape and understanding about the differences in medical cannabinoids unfolds, it will be increasingly important to distinguish “medical marijuana” (with noted varying degrees of psychotropic effects and deficits in executive function) - from “medical CBD” (in which the high CBD and low THC content may mitigate psychosis).[58][59][60]

Various breeds/strains of "medical marijuana" are found to have a significant variety in the ratios of CBD-to-THC and are known to contain other non-psychotropic cannabinoids.[61][62] However it is only the amount of ∆9-THC that chemically gives a legal determination as to whether the plant material(s) used for the purposes of extracting CBD are considered hemp, or considered marijuana.

Any psychoactive marijuana, regardless of its CBD content, is derived from the flower (or bud) of the genus cannabis. Non-psychoactive hemp (also commonly-termed industrial hemp), regardless of its CBD content, is any part of the genus cannabis plant, whether growing or not, containing a ∆-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of no more than three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry weight basis. Certain standards are required for the legal growth and production of hemp. The Colorado Industrial Hemp Program registers growers of industrial hemp and samples crops to verify that the THC concentration does not exceed 0.3% on dry weight basis.[63]

The United States Drug Enforcement Administration, the DEA, recently eased some of the regulatory requirements for those who are conducting FDA-approved clinical trials on cannabidiol (CBD).[64]

Australia

Prescription Medicine (Schedule 4) for therapeutic use containing 2 per cent (2.0%) or less of other cannabinoids commonly found in cannabis (such as ∆9-THC).[65]

Canada

Cannabidiol is a Schedule II drug in Canada. Prescription medication.[66]

UK

Cannabidiol, in an oral-mucosal spray formulation combined with delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is a prescription product available for relief of severe spasticity due to multiple sclerosis (where other anti-spasmodics have not been effective).[67]

EU

Cannabidiol is listed in EU Cosmetics Ingredient Database.[68]
