描述
This study will examine how medical cannabis use affects opioid analgesic use, with particular attention to THC/CBD content and adverse events. We will enroll adults with (a) severe or chronic neuropathic or joint pain, (b) prescribed opioid analgesic use, (c) new certification for medical cannabis, and (d) newly dispensed soft gel capsule products from Vireo (medical cannabis dispensary) (including a high THC:low CBD product, an equal THC:CBD product, and a low THC:high CBD product). Over the 14 weeks, data sources will include questionnaires; medical, pharmacy, and Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) records; and urine samples. The primary independent variable will be type of soft gel capsule product, and the primary outcome will be cumulative opioid analgesic dose.
