Children and adolescents with severe behavioural problems who were given CBD displayed less irritability, aggression, self-injury and yelling, a small pilot study has found.

The pilot involved just 16 subjects aged eight to 16 who were recruited from hospital and private paediatric practices. Of that number, half were administered CBD over eight weeks and half received a placebo, notes the study abstract. Researchers acknowledge the randomized control study was small, too small to come to any broad conclusions, but add the finding of a clinically significant change in severe behavioural problems is encouraging.

Beyond that positive, CBD seemed to be well-tolerated by most of the study participants, with no serious side effects reported.
