Teens who use marijuana are 11 times more likely to be diagnosed with a psychotic disorder, a new study finds, NBC News reported.
The cannabis study, published Wednesday, was led by researchers from the University of Toronto and examined teenage patients who used marijuana within the last year and those who didn’t, according to NBC News.
When the marijuana study was limited further to teens who were sent to the emergency room or hospitalized, it showed a 27-fold increase in the likelihood of being diagnosed with psychotic illness.
