The Behavioral Sequelae of Cannabis Use in Healthy People: A Systematic Review

Abstract Background: Cannabis is known to have a broad range of effects on behavior, including experiencing a “high” and tranquility/relaxation. However, there are several adverse behavioral sequalae that can arise from cannabis use, depending on frequency of use, potency (e.g., THC content), age of onset, and cumulative exposure.

Recreational cannabis legalization has had limited effects on a wide range of adult psychiatric and psychosocial outcomes

We tested the effect of legalization on...

Association of Herbal Cannabis Use With Negative Psychosocial Parameters in Patients With Fibromyalgia

Objective. Patients with chronic pain, including fibromyalgia (FM), may seek treatments outside of mainstream medicine. Medicinal cannabinoids are popularly advocated for pain relief but with limited evidence for efficacy in FM. The extent of use of cannabinoids in FM is unknown. Methods.

We validated the diagnosis of FM and examined the associations of cannabinoid use in these patients. Results. Cannabinoids were being used by 13% of all patients, of whom 80% used herbal cannabis (marijuana), 24% used prescription cannabinoids,...
