Effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on locomotor alterations induced by other substances.

Species Substance CBD Locomotor Activity Reference
Rat Single i.p.
rimonabant (0.1 mg/kg; i.p.)
Single i.p. CBD (20 mg/kg) No effect of rimonabant on CBD-induced reduction of vertical activity. [69]
Single i.p. WAY-100,635 (0.5 mg/kg) Single i.p. CBD (20 mg/kg) WAY-100,635 restored CBD-induced reduction of vertical activity.
Single i.p.
8-OH-DPAT
(1 mg/kg)
Single i.p. CBD (20 mg/kg) CBD potentiated
8-OH-DPAT reduction of vertical activity.
Rat Single oral haloperidol
(5 mg/kg)
Single oral CBD
(3, 5, 10 mg/kg)
Haloperidol or CBD caused an increase in time spent in the open arms.
This effect was slightly reduced by concomitant CBD/haloperidol administration.
[75]
Haloperidol reduced motor activity.
CBD (5 mg/kg) antagonized hypolocomotion induced by haloperidol.
Mouse Daily progressive i.p. dose of cocaine
(15 to 60 mg/kg) three times a day for 12 days
Single i.p. CBD (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) given 270 min after the last cocaine administration All doses of CBD
blocked the increase in total distance values induced by cocaine
withdrawal.
[76]
Rat Single i.p. ketamine (30, 60 mg/kg) alone or 10 min after CBD Single i.p. CBD (10 or 30 mg/kg) alone or 10 min before ketamine CBD (30 mg/kg) alone decreased motor activity; ketamine (30, 60 mg/kg) alone increased motor activity.
CBD did not reverse ketamine-induced short-lasting hyperactivity but prolonged it over time.
[78]
Mouse Single i.p. S-ketamine (2.5, 3, 5, 10, 30 mg/kg) I.p. CBD (3, 10, 30 mg/kg) 30 min before S-ketamine CBD produced antidepressant effects without any influence on motor activity.
Higher dose of S-ketamine showed antidepressant effects with increase in motor activity.
