Abstract
This first of its kind book is a comprehensive compilation of multiple facets of cannabis recommendation, use and effects from a variety of different perspectives. Comprised of chapters dedicated to separate fields of medicine, this evidence-based guide outlines the current data, or lack thereof, as well as the need for further study. The book begins with a general overview of the neurobiology and pharmacology of THC and hemp. It then delves into various medical concerns that plague specific disciplines of medicine such as psychiatry, cardiology, gastrointestinal and neurology, among others. The end of the book focuses on non-medical concerns such as public health and safety, driving impairment and legal implications.- Publisher
Contents:
The Properties and Use of Cannabis sativa Herb and Extracts -- Cannabinoid and Marijuana Neurobiology -- The Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Potential Drug Interactions of Cannabinoids -- Cannabis and Neuropsychiatric Effects -- Cannabis and the Impact on the Pediatric and Adolescent Population.
