Conclusion of this study

These reductions parallel those noted in prior NAC treatment studies in cocaine and nicotine dependent individuals (6,7). Although the present findings should be interpreted in light of the limitations of this preliminary study (i.e. open-label study without a control group, limited semi-quantitative urine drug testing), data strongly suggest the need for a more rigorous examination of NAC for treatment of cannabis dependence.
