Note.

The number of excluded pairs was as follows: Week 1/Baseline (3 pairs excluded because at least one specimen exceeded the LOQ); Week 2/Week 1 (2 pairs excluded because at least one specimen exceeded the LOQ)

††

Two participants reported resuming cannabis use after the Week 2 visit, and were therefore not included in subsequent data points.
