Marijuana and Teens

Marijuana is legal in two U.S. states, so it must be safe, right? That may be the message teens are hearing. A survey from the National Institute on Drug Abuse finds the use of pot is up among high school students while the perceived risk of smoking it is down. Researchers worry this could lead to a greater increase in its use in the future. Meanwhile, a Dutch study says marijuana use may be linked to psychotic symptoms later in life. Reuters Health wrote about the study and medwireNews covered the survey.
