Study Summary

Study participants received dronabinol (0, 120mg/day and 240mg/day) for 12 consecutive days in a randomized order. During each dronabinol maintenance period they were able to self-administer active or placebo cannabis using either a progressive ratio schedule or choice between cannabis and monetary alternative.

Primary Outcome

Participants will be able to self-administer cannabis cigarettes (weighing about 0.8 grams and with about 6% THC) under a progressive ratio schedule. The number of progressive ratios completed (and thus, cannabis cigarettes consumed) is the primary study endpoint
