Cannabis' Impact on Alcohol Consumption Study

This study is looking at how different types of smoked cannabis affect how much alcohol people drink. Researchers are testing THC-dominant cannabis (with 9.53% THC), CBD-dominant cannabis (with 11.27% CBD), and a cannabis placebo (a non-active version). You would also receive either an alcoholic drink or a non-alcoholic placebo drink. The main goal is to see how many milliliters of alcohol are consumed after smoking cannabis. To join, you need to be 21-50 years old, speak English, have smoked cannabis and had heavy drinking in the past two months, and be in good physical health. You cannot be pregnant or nursing, or have other drugs in your system besides cannabis. The study aims to enroll up to 350 participants. The current status of the study is unclear.
