Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm 3: chronic hemp (240 mg CBD) + clopidogrelExperimental Treatment2 Interventions

Participants will self-administer a single low dose of hemp (30 mg CBD) as an oral softgel at home daily for 5 consecutive days. On day 6, participants will return to the research setting, where they will be administered a single low dose of hemp (30 mg CBD) and a single oral dose of clopidogrel (75 mg). Blood will be collected for 72 hours and urine will be collected for 24 hours.
Group III: Arm 1: clopidogrel aloneExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
