Opis:
The article aims to discuss the justification for the legalization of cannabinoids based on the analysis of data from countries where marijuana has been legalized for both medical and recreational use, as well as a retrospective analysis of the medical documentation of patients from the Clinical Toxicology and Cardiology Department and Internal Diseases of the Provincial Specialist Hospital named after Stefan Cardinal Wyszyński in Lublin (years 2020-2024). During the analysis of hospital documentation, a slight upward trend in the number of hospitalizations due to cannabinoid poisoning was observed over the years 2020-2024. In 2024, 54 cases of hospitalization due to poisoning with Cannabis derivatives were recorded, with an average length of hospitalization of 3 days. The vast majority of patients were men (83%) under the age of 26. In 78% of patients, co-occurrence of poisoning with other psychoactive substances was noted, with the most common being alcohol (29 cases), LSD (12 cases), and benzodiazepines (11 cases). 44 patients required consultation with a psychologist or psychiatrist. Suspected suicide attempts were noted in 12 patients. In 38 patients, psychomotor agitation occurred, with pharmacological sedation required in 34 patients. In 22 cases, there was a significant increase in creatine levels, which may indicate an increased risk of rhabdomyolysis. Press analysis showed that the legalization of marijuana does not lead to immediate and significant changes in public health indicators, except for issues related to road safety. Shortly after the legalization of recreational marijuana in some U.S. states and Canada, an increase in consultations with doctors was observed, caused by both acute and chronic effects of cannabinoid poisoning. Due to the short time since marijuana was legalized, research and statistical analyses are still incomplete and often lead to various, contradictory conclusions.
