Cannabis use has increased in prevalence over the past several decades, and novel forms of cannabis (e.g., concentrates and edibles) have become readily available.
The purpose of this narrative review was to compare the prevalence of use, methods of consumption, and risk for cannabis use disorder outcomes across cannabis forms to better understand the diversifying landscape of cannabis products and practices.
The electronic database PubMed was used to find relevant articles with keyword searches related to the prevalence of use, methods of consumption, and risk for cannabis use disorder for three major forms of cannabis (flower, concentrates, and edibles).
Use of all three major forms is prevalent among many cannabis users, but there are differences in user demographics and methods of consumption. Use of cannabis concentrates may be associated with a greater risk for cannabis use disorder. Given the historical predominance of cannabis flower use, many outcomes have not been compared with concentrates or edibles. Furthermore, form-specific longitudinal data is lacking.
Given the more recent emergence of novel cannabis products, comparisons of the long-term outcomes of use for each form are needed to advance the development of more informed harm reduction practices that are common to and specific to each form of cannabis.
在过去几十年中,大麻的使用 prevalence 有所增加,新型大麻形式(如浓缩物和食用产品)已 readily available。
本叙述性综述的目的是比较不同大麻形式的使用 prevalence、消费方法以及大麻使用障碍结局的风险,以更好地了解大麻产品和使用方式的多样化情况。
使用电子数据库PubMed通过关键词搜索来查找与三种主要大麻形式(花、浓缩物和食用产品)的使用 prevalence、消费方法以及大麻使用障碍风险相关的文章。
所有三种主要形式在许多大麻使用者中都很 prevalent,但在用户人口统计学特征和消费方法上存在差异。使用大麻浓缩物可能与大麻使用障碍的风险更高有关。鉴于大麻花使用的历史 predominance,许多结局尚未与浓缩物或食用产品进行比较。此外,缺乏特定形式的纵向数据。
鉴于新型大麻产品最近才出现,需要对每种形式的长期使用结局进行比较,以推动制定更明智的减少危害措施,这些措施既适用于每种大麻形式又具有针对性。
