Antimicrobial Effect of Cannabidiol on Intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

The researchers investigated the antimicrobial effect of cannabidiol (CBD) on Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB). CBD exhibited antimicrobial activity against TB and reduced intracellular bacteria in infected cells without toxicity to human cells. This suggests that CBD could be a potential treatment for TB.
