Cannabidiol Medication Intervention Trial (CALM-IT)

Alzheimer’s Disease

Agitation is common in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and is one of the most distressing and symptoms of AD. Agitation is associated with faster loss of independent living, increased caregiver stress, poorer quality of life, and increased risk of death. In addition, current treatments show only mild benefits but come with side effects. Therefore, identifying safer and more effective treatments for agitation in AD is a priority.
