Over the past few years, marijuana use has been landing more young people in the hospital, according to a new study by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Published on Thursday in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, the report analyzed nearly 540,000 cases nationwide where people under 25 years old wound up in a hospital due to complications from cannabis use. From 2019 to 2022, the researchers found that cannabis-related emergency department visits increased overall among kids, teens, and young adults. Over the study period, the researchers also noted large increases in cannabis-related ED visits among kids less than ten years old.
” The rise in cannabis-related emergency department visits, however, does not necessarily mean that kids are consuming more marijuana. According to the University of Michigan’s Monitoring the Future Survey, marijuana use among 8th to 12th graders from 2019-2022 either decreased or remained approximately level. From Roehler’s perspective, this could mean that young people are using more concentrated, risky cannabis products or that more youth reported cannabis use during ED visits.
