🌿 Does medicinal cannabis use affect you the day after?
Review finds little evidence, further research needed

Does medicinal cannabis use affect you the day after? A review of 20 studies has found little evidence, despite many warnings otherwise.
While there’s certainly no doubt about THC’s more immediate effects on cognitive ability, there’s apparently not a great deal of evidence of its impacts the next day.
The review looked at studies that assessed participants cognitive ability the day after a single dose of THC. The review found that: “Some lower quality studies have reported "next day" effects of THC on cognitive function and safety-sensitive tasks. However, most studies, including some of higher quality, have found no such effect.”
We definitely aren’t saying that it’s totally fine to jump in a car the day after taking your medicinal cannabis, but it sounds like the science isn’t as settled as some think.
