PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 0 - 48 hours

Population: AUCinf could not be calculated for three participants in the standard CBD arm as plasma levels were not falling at the final time point.

Difference in AUC(inf) for a single dose of oral CBD between the novel and standard formulations in the fasting state.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: The scale will be used pre-dose and at 24 and 48 hours post dose.

The GSRS was used to assess gastrointestinal symptoms over the past 24 hours only. It is a 15-item rating scale, where each item is assessed with a 7-point Likert scale, scored from 1 to 7, and with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms. The total score is the mean score across items (minimum score=1; maximum sore=7).
