Cannabis' Impact on Alcohol Consumption
Cannabis' Impact on Alcohol Consumption: Integrating Laboratory and Ecological Momentary Assessment Methods
This study employs a repeated measures experimental design to examine the effect of THC-dominant dose of cannabis and CBD-dominant dose of cannabis, relative to placebo, on subsequent drinking in an alcohol choice task in which participants choose either to drink or receive monetary reinforcement for drinks not consumed. Cannabis will be administered simultaneously with an alcohol-priming dose or alcohol placebo.
The study will enroll up to 350 nontreatment-seeking heavy episodic alcohol drinkers who use cannabis weekly.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: THC-dominant cannabis dose
367 mg of cannabis plant material with 9.53% THC and 0.09% CBD and 217 mg of placebo cannabis plant material will be mixed and smoked in a handheld pipe
|
Drink containing 0.3 g/kg of alcohol
Placebo beverage contains only juice and a negligible trace of alcohol for masking
|
Experimental: CBD-dominant cannabis dose
367 mg of cannabis plant material with 11.27% CBD and 0.35% THC and 217 mg of placebo cannabis plant material will be mixed and smoked in a handheld pipe
|
Drink containing 0.3 g/kg of alcohol
Placebo beverage contains only juice and a negligible trace of alcohol for masking
|
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
584 mg of cannabis plant material will be smoked in a handheld pipe
|
Drink containing 0.3 g/kg of alcohol
Placebo beverage contains only juice and a negligible trace of alcohol for masking
|
Experimental: Alcohol priming dose
Alcohol: 0.3 g/kg.
Alcohol priming drink is designed to raise blood alcohol levels to 0.03 g/dl and be consumed in 5 minutes.
The drink is mixed using 80-proof liquor and juice.
Participants are randomized to receive either the experimental alcohol priming dose or alcohol placebo.

Smoked cannabis with 9.53% THC and 0.09% CBD
Smoked cannabis with 0.35% THC and 11.27% CBD
Smoked placebo cannabis plant material
|
Placebo Comparator: Alcohol placebo dose
Placebo beverage contains only juice and a negligible trace of alcohol for masking.
The weight and sex-adjusted volume of alcohol and non-alcohol containing beverages will be equal.
Participants are randomized to receive either the experimental alcohol priming dose or alcohol placebo.
