Biologically active cannabidiol analogs comprising a compound of the formula ##STR00001##
wherein one of R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 or both is/are the residue of a moiety formed by the reaction of an amino group of the amino acid ester of R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 or both with a dicarboxylic acid or a dicarboxylic acid derivative and the other R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 (in the case of the mono) is the residue of a dicarboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid derivative or Hydrogen (H), (i.e. underivatized), and salts thereof. These CBD analogs are be useful in pain management in oncology and other clinical settings in which neuropathy is presented. Furthermore, these CBD-analogs are useful in blocking the addictive properties of opiates.
