Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Nicotine Transdermal Patch for Cannabis Dependence and Nicotine Dependence
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Nicotine Replacement Therapy for Cannabis Dependence and Nicotine Dependence. Completed, enrolled 12 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators are conducting a Stage 1 pilot feasibility study at McLean Hospital to develop and refine a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) intervention. The investigators aim to develop a feasible 10-week integrated CBT intervention for the treatment of concurrent marijuana dependence and nicotine dependence. The investigators hypothesize that the CBT intervention, in conjunction with Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) in the form of a transdermal nicotine patch, will reduce the use of marijuana and nicotine.
