focus on dually diagnosed clients, such clients were common in both the treatment and placebo groups, so the research is clinically relevant. A later review of 72 clients receiving naltrexone for alcoholism showed good treatment retention (81.9% completed the 8 week study) and good clinical response (82% reduced drinking by at least 75% and only 17% relapsed at 8 weeks) (Maxwell & Shinderman, 2000).

This challenges GW Pharma's drug dubbed Epidiolex which reduced monthly seizures by a median 39% compared with a 13% reduction when treated with a placebo (Gatlin, IBD, 2017).

Clinical Development Evidence for Clinical Effectiveness There were various clinical trials completed and revived, only made possible by the preclinical work. These were done under various conditions at differing dosages and times of infusion and under different conditions. The ECLIPSE trials were made up of 3 studies to test clevidipine against 3 common perioperative antihypertensives which were nitro-glycerine, sodium nitroprusside, and nicardipine (which is usually a postoperative drug due to
