Bold values represent AUCR > 1.25 (cutoff recommended by US Food and Drug Administration).

Cmax,hepatic inlet,u and Cave,portal,u of CBD and THC and Cmax,sys,u and Cave,sys,u of CBD, THC, and their metabolites are provided in Supplemental Table 2. Maximum intestinal fluid solubility of CBD and THC is from Bansal et al. (2020).
