In Brief

Detailed Summary
The primary aim of the supplemental study is to provide POC testing of aprepitant as a treatment for comorbid alcohol and cannabis dependence. The data analysis plan specified in the parent grant will likewise be applied to the supplemental project to test for effects of aprepitant vs placebo on measures of alcohol and cannabis use and protracted withdrawal.
