The proposed 2-week, double-blind, crossover, proof of concept study aims to measure and manipulate core neurochemical (i.e., dysregulated brain GABA/glutamate homeostasis) and neurobehavioral (i.e., elevated impulsivity) dysfunctions characteristic of individuals with cannabis use disorder (CUD) and Bipolar Disorder (BD), using a medication that has been shown to increase cortical GABA (i.e., gabapentin) levels in past research, and to evaluate medication-related changes in response inhibition (go no-go) and cannabis cue reactivity functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging tasks, as well as cannabis use, mood symptoms (including anxiety and sleep), and impulsivity in individuals with CUD+BD.
