ParameterDose modification criterionAction to be taken
Cannabidiol
INRGrade 2 changes ie, >1.5 for patients not on anticoagulantsCBD held for one week then laboratory tests repeated:
  • If abnormality resolves, recommence dosing at previous dose (300 mg)

  • If abnormality does not resolve and there is no other cause for the AE identified, (ie, the AE is probably or definitely attributed to the study medication) study medication to be ceased and participant to be withdrawn

  • If there is uncertainty about the cause of the AE or the test values fluctuating, the investigator has discretion to continue to hold the medication and repeat testing

Total bilirubinGrade 3 changes (ie, >3.0 ULN)
AST or ALTGrade 3 changes in ALT or AST (ie, >5.0 ULN)
Renal functionCreatinine values of grade 3 changes (ie, >5.0 ULN)
eGRF—grade 3 changes (ie, <30.0 mL/min)

  • AE, adverse event; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; CBD, cannabidiol; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; INR, international normalised ratio; ULN, upper limit of normal.
