Cannabis edible/ja: Difference between revisions

米国[[:en:National Institute on Drug Abuse|国立薬物乱用研究所]]が資金提供した「おいしいTHC：カンナビス・エディブルの約束と課題」という研究では、長期かつ大量のカンナビス使用が脳の発達、精神衛生、心臓の健康を悪化させる可能性があると示されました。

A safety concern with regards to cannabis edibles is overconsumption which is usually caused by the delayed effects of ingested cannabis. Because users do not feel the effects of cannabis edibles immediately, users may eat more to compensate and end up consuming too much THC. As a result, cannabis edibles as such have caused the most healthcare visits as compared to other forms of cannabis consumption.(Additionally, the amount of THC in any individual product may be highly variable.)  Additionally people can have very different responses to the same amount of THC with 2.5 mg being enough for some people to begin to feel effects whilst, for others, 50 mg is required. Thus typical advice for newcomers is to "start low and go slow" in order to gauge the over-all initial effects, with 5–10 mg being one neophyte range.

=== Psychological ===

High concentrations of THC have been shown to cause [[hallucination]]s, delusions, and anxiety in some people; for most, these symptoms only last as long as that person is intoxicated, but some people can be affected for several days. Cannabis use has been connected with increased use of other drugs, although this connection has never been shown to be causal.

=== Children ===

Many edible cannabis products are packaged in a way which could appeal to children (gummies, etc.), though laws requiring a minimum age to purchase recreational cannabis are universal in jurisdictions that have fully legalized its use, similar to age restrictions on alcohol. As with alcohol and prescription medicines, care should be taken to prevent children from having access to the product, as cannabis edibles have been the main cause of a number of health care visits relating to accidental cannabis consumption by children. In 2022, the US [[National Poison Data System]] reported about 6,000 people calling for help after children under the age of 13 ate cannabis edibles, compared to 1,800 calls for [[Cannabidiol|CBD]] and 2,000 for dried marijuana.  Children under the age of 5 who ate cannabis edibles is the largest source of marijuana-related calls to poison centers (36% of calls about marijuana product exposures in 2021).  Although 65% of calls about a child under 13 who had consumed edibles ultimately involved no or only minor effects, almost 3% involved a child who was experiencing life-threatening symptoms or a similar major effect from consumption of the edibles. About 60% of these calls resulted in medical evaluation, and 20% resulted in [[hospitalization]].

[[Cannabis intoxication]] in children under 10 is primarily due to unintentional intoxication through cannabis edibles, such as a child eating what appears to be candy.  In such cases, it is typically the only drug consumed by the child, and is much more likely to result in hospitalization than in teenagers. {{As of|2023}}, many children have needed care in an [[intensive care unit]], including [[Tracheal intubation|intubation]].  Although deaths and other serious outcomes are "rarely reported", at least one child has died from eating THC gummies.
