The FDA has advised the DEA to de-schedule CBD altogether,
citing that:
● “There is little indication that CBD has abuse potential or
presents a significant risk to the public health.”
● “No evidence for a classic drug withdrawal syndrome for
CBD, and no evidence that CBD causes physical or psychic
dependence.”
● “CBD does not appear to have abuse potential under the
Controlled Substance Act.”
● “There is no signal for the development of substance use
disorder in individuals consuming CBD-containing products.”
● “It is unlikely that CBD would act as an immediate
precursor to THC for abuse purposes.”
