Chapter 15
Marijuana © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
2.
Cannabis: The Plant
Marijuana is a preparation of leafy material from the Cannabis plant that is smoked Marijuana is classified separately because its effects are varied and complex Sedation Pain relief Hallucinations (in large doses) Effects it produces in most users are sufficiently different from the effects of depressants, narcotics, and hallucinogens to merit its separate classification © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
3.
Cannabis: Three Species
1. Cannabis sativa Originated in Asia but now grown worldwide Grown primarily for its fibers, from which hemp rope is made Grows as a weed in the U.S. and Canada A lanky plant up to 18 feet high © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
4.
Cannabis: Three Species
2. Cannabis indica Grown for its psychoactive resins Cultivated in many areas of the world A compact plant 2 to 3 feet high Potency varies depending on plant genetics and environmental conditions 2. Cannabis ruderalis Grown primarily in Russia © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
5.
Cannabis Resin
Primary psychoactive agent in Cannabis is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) THC is concentrated in the resin, most of which is in the flowering tops Less in the leaves Little in the fibrous stalks Psychoactive potency of Cannabis preparations depends on the amount of resin present © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
6.
Cannabis Preparations
Traditional preparations in India correspond roughly to types available in the U.S. 1. Charas, also known as hashish 2. Ganja, also known as sinsemilla From Spanish sin semilla, “without seeds” 1. Bhang © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
7.
Hashish
Consists of pure resin that has been carefully removed from the surface of leaves and stems May be less than pure depending on how carefully the resin has been separated from the plant material Rare in the U.S. Average THC content of U.S. hashish ranges from 3 to 8 percent A few batches have tested as high as 20 percent THC © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
8.
Hashish
Production methods Traditional production involves manual scraping of exuded resin from the plant More efficient recent production method involves boiling the plants in alcohol and evaporating the resulting liquid down to thick, dark hash oil Potency of hash oil varies but can contain more than 50 percent THC © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
9.
Sinsemilla
Consists of dried flowering tops of plants with pistillate flowers (female plants) Male plants are removed from the fields before the female plants are pollinated Female plants don’t put their energy into seed production, thus increasing their potency Average THC content of U.S. sinsemilla samples is about 7 to 12 percent © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
10.
Bhang
Consists of the remainder of the Cannabis plant after the top has been picked Plant material is dried, ground into a powder, and mixed into drinks or candies Rare in the U.S., but about equivalent to low-grade marijuana consisting of leaves Average THC content of less than 1 percent © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
11.
Smokable Marijuana
Available in the U.S. Potency varies widely Low-grade products (less than 1 percent THC) High-grade sinsemilla (9 percent or more THC) Typical range of potency is 2 to 8 percent THC Proportion of confiscated marijuana samples of higher-potency has increased since the 1980s but is still only about 15 percent © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
12.
Early History
Earliest mention: Chinese pharmacy book (2737 BC) Social use of the plant had spread to the Muslim world and North Africa by AD 1000 “Hashishiyya” religious cult carried out political murders Story of cult spread in works by Marco Polo (1299) and Boccaccio (1350s) Origin of the term assassin Hashish use mentioned frequently in The Arabian Nights © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
13.
U.S. History:
“Marijuana, Assassin of Youth” Early 1900s: Little public interest or use 1926: Series of newspaper articles linked marijuana and crime Other reports by police and in popular literature followed 1936: All states had laws regulating the use, sale, and/or possession of marijuana Most early regulation efforts Based on concerns about use and resultant behavior Not based on direct evidence linking marijuana use with crime or violence © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
14.
U.S. History:
“Marijuana, Assassin of Youth” Contributing factors to “pyramid of prejudice” against marijuana Marijuana use associated with lower-class groups and recent immigrants Regular references made in popular literature to the murdering cult of assassins as suggestive of the characteristics of the drug Shaky factual ground of the stories Individuals in the legends did NOT commit murder under the influence of hashish but rather received hashish as a reward for their actions © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
15.
Marijuana Tax Act
of 1937 Act followed the regulation-by-taxation theme of the 1914 Harrison Act Grower, distributor, seller, and buyer were taxed Administratively almost impossible to deal in Cannabis Bureau of Narcotics uniform law specifically named Cannabis sativa Current federal and uniform laws refer more generally to the genus Cannabis State laws made possession and use of Cannabis illegal per se 1969: U.S. Supreme Court declared the Marijuana Tax Act unconstitutional © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
16.
After the Marijuana
Tax Act Cost of marijuana increased significantly Reports continued to be published that marijuana use had less serious effects than commonly believed BUT Substantial disagreement over the interpretation of research findings 1950s and ‘60s Little scientific research done on Cannabis Use of Cannabis continued to increase A common symbol of youthful rejection of authority Identification with a new era of personal freedom Usage rose around 1980, declined until the mid- 1990s, and then peaked in the late 1990s, although never reaching the levels in the 1970s. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
17.
Pharmacology:
Cannabinoid Chemicals Chemistry of Cannabis is complex and unique Active agent contains no nitrogen and thus is not an alkaloid like other psychoactive plant materials Cannabinoids are 66 chemicals unique to the Cannabis plant Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Isolated and synthesized in 1964 The most pharmacologically active cannabinoid There may be several other active agents in Cannabis © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
18.
Pharmacology:
Cannabinoid Chemicals Delta-9 THC, the most active substance found in Cannabis (left), and anandamide, isolated from brain tissues (right) © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
19.
Pharmacology
Smoked marijuana THC is absorbed rapidly by the blood and travels to the brain and then the rest of the body Within 30 minutes, most THC is gone from the brain Peak psychological and cardiovascular effects occur together within 5 to 10 minutes Oral THC THC is absorbed more slowly and the liver transforms it into 11-hydroxy-delta-9-THC Less THC reaches the brain Peak effects occur about 90 minutes following ingestion © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
20.
Pharmacology
Metabolites have different half-lives After one week, 25 to 30 percent of the THC and its metabolites might remain in the body Two or three weeks may be required to completely eliminate a large dose of THC and its metabolites High lipid solubility of THC and its metabolites Selectively taken up and stored in fatty tissue, to be released slowly No easy way to monitor THC and metabolite levels and relate them to effects Long-lasting low concentrations of THC and metabolites may have effects on the brain and other organs that have not yet been determined © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
21.
Mechanism of Action
Anandamide Endogenous substance isolated from brain tissue with marijuana-like effects From ananda, Sanskrit for “bliss” THC and other cannabinoids bind to two receptors CB1 receptor CB2 receptor © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
22.
Mechanism of Action
CB1 receptor found primarily in the brain but also unusually widespread throughout the body Potential actions of cannabinoids are widespread High density of CB1 receptors in specific brain regions Basal ganglia (movement coordination) Cerebellum (fine body movement coordination) Hippocampus (memory storage) Cerebral cortex (higher cognitive functions) Nucleus accumbens (reward) CB2 receptor found mainly outside the brain in immune cells Potential role of cannabinoids in the modulation of the immune system © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
23.
Mechanism of Action
Rimonabant, a selective CB1 receptor antagonist, is being tested Shows promise in reducing food intake and helping people quit smoking Concerns raised over use of the drug due to concerns about side effects such as depression and anxiety © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
24.
Physiological Effects
Cardiovascular effects Increased heart rate occurs after smoking marijuana and ingesting oral THC Time course differs substantially following the two different methods of administration Research findings on the effects of cannabinoids on blood pressure have been mixed Cardiovascular risks of marijuana use haven’t been shown in young, healthy users People with cardiovascular disease should probably avoid marijuana and oral THC due to effects on heart rate © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
25.
Time course for
heart rate after smoking marijuana (left) and ingesting oral THC (right) © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
26.
Physiological Effects
Pulmonary effects Bronchodilation is seen following acute exposure to marijuana Heavy marijuana smoking over a long period could lead to clinically significant impairment of pulmonary function Reddening of the eyes Dryness of the mouth and throat © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
27.
Abuse Potential
Abuse potential has been shown Studies show both animals and humans will self-administer the drug Marijuana cigarettes with higher THC content are preferred Oral THC does not have high abuse potential, likely due to its different time course Less rapid onset of effects is usually associated with reduced risk of abuse © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
28.
Subjective Effects
Effects include euphoria, “high,” mellowness, hunger, and stimulation Peak effects occur within 5 to 10 minutes and last for about two hours Oral THC has similar effects but a different time course Magnitude of effects is greater with increasing THC concentrations Regular marijuana smokers can recognize the effects and distinguish between real and placebo marijuana cigarettes © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
29.
Subjective Effects
Infrequent smokers Experience similar but more intense effects compared with experienced smokers due to lower tolerance At high THC concentrations, may report negative effects such as mild paranoia and hallucinations © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
30.
Cognitive Performance
Acute administration of marijuana to infrequent users disrupts cognitive performance Slowed cognitive processing Impaired short-term memory Impaired inhibitory control Loss of sustained concentration or vigilance Impaired visuospatial processing Acute administration of marijuana to frequent users Causes less dramatic effects, implying they are tolerant to some (but not all) cognitive effects Slowed cognitive processing consistently seen Impairment during certain workplace tasks and the operation of machinery and automobiles can have significant effects © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
31.
Cognitive Performance
Effects on long-term cognitive functioning are more difficult to predict Studies have had divergent findings and interpretations Current evidence suggests that after abstaining for more than a month, regular marijuana use produces few effects on cognition Additional (and better) research may change current thinking © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
32.
Additional Effects
Food intake: Marijuana and oral THC significantly increase total daily calorie intake Clinical use of cannabis-based drugs for appetite stimulation Unclear if average chronic marijuana users are overweight Verbal behavior: Verbal exchanges decrease, nonverbal social interactions increase © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
33.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis U.S. medical use declined even before the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act New and better drugs were developed to treat most illnesses Variability of product (also a problem for research) Active ingredient insoluble in water (can’t be injected) Oral dose has delayed onset of action 1941: Cannabis dropped from The National Formulary and The U.S. Pharmacopoeia © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
34.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis Renewed interest in potential medical uses led to a review of older reports May be effective as an anticonvulsant in some cases when preferred medication is ineffective May relieve tension and migraine headaches Reduces fluid pressure in the eyes May be useful in glaucoma patients Limited program in which NIDA supplied medical-grade marijuana cigarettes to certain patients on a “compassionate use” protocol © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
35.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis Reduces severe nausea caused by certain drugs used to treat cancer 1985: Oral TCH (dronabinol; brand name Marinol) licensed for sale to cancer patients experiencing nausea from chemotherapy 1993: Approved to stimulate appetite in AIDS patients Marinol © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
36.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis State and federal action 1996: Arizona and California ballot initiatives pass Physicians can recommend marijuana Patients can use marijuana if recommended Currently, 14 states have some form of similar legislation © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
37.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis State and federal action U.S. government announced plans to prevent medical marijuana use Closure of Cannabis buyers’ clubs Revocation of the DEA registration of any physician who advised a patient to use marijuana Prosecution of physicians and patients 2005: U.S. Supreme Court ruled that patients could be prosecuted for possessing marijuana even if their physicians recommended its use for a serious illness In 2009, US Attorney General Eric Holder said that the government would end its raids on state-approved marijuana dispensaries. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
38.
Medical Uses of
Cannabis Findings from Institute of Medicine report Marijuana is a relatively safe and effective medicine for patients suffering from certain chronic conditions More research is needed on marijuana and synthetic cannabinoids An effective inhaler should be developed to solve the problem of poor oral absorption of THC Compassionate use of smoked marijuana cigarettes should be allowed for no more than six months in certain patients with debilitating, intractable pain or vomiting under certain conditions © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
39.
Abuse and Dependence:
Withdrawal DSM-IV: No listing of cannabis withdrawal, BUT Research suggests an abstinence syndrome does exist Not life threatening but unpleasant Symptoms Negative mood states–anxiety, irritability Disrupted sleep Decreased food intake Aggressive behavior (in some cases) Begins about 1 day after the last dose Lasts 4 to 12 days © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
40.
Abuse and Dependence
Tolerance to many marijuana effects develops after regular use of high levels Tolerance may not develop uniformly to all effects Marijuana has abuse potential A significant minority of current marijuana users may be abusing or dependent on the drug © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
41.
Toxicity Potential
Acute physiological effects Increased heart rate, possibly risky for someone with preexisting cardiovascular disease No human overdose deaths have been reported © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
42.
Toxicity Potential
Chronic lung exposure from marijuana smoking Daily smoking impairs air flow in and out of the lungs Long-term implications for health are unclear Marijuana smoke contains many—but not all—the chemicals found in tobacco smoke Tar Carbon monoxide Hydrogen cyanide Nitrosamines Benzopyrene Carcinogen found in higher levels in marijuana cigarettes than in tobacco cigarettes Marijuana cigarettes are not filtered © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
43.
Toxicity Potential
Chronic lung exposure from marijuana smoking Smoking behavior among regular marijuana users Smoke fewer marijuana cigarettes than tobacco users smoke standard cigarettes Hold smoke deep in their lungs longer than do cigarette smokers No direct evidence that marijuana smoking causes lung cancer More time may be required to show the link © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
44.
Toxicity Potential
Anxiety Characterized by fear of loss of control and fear that things won’t return to normal Some people require a medical sedative or tranquilizer but the best method to remind a person everything will go back to normal is a “talking down.” © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
45.
Toxicity Potential
Reproductive effects Reduced testosterone levels in men Diminished sperm counts and abnormal sperm in men A growing number of studies show that marijuana use by pregnant mothers does not appear to be associated with low birth weight or premature birth. The amounts of marijuana used by the women in these studies were relatively low. Immune system effects Findings have been mixed Some evidence that marijuana use reduces immunity to infection Mortality data do NOT show a relationship between marijuana use and overall death rate © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
46.
Toxicity Potential
Amotivational syndrome Concern has been expressed about the effect of regular marijuana use on behavior and motivation. Laboratory data do not support the hypothesis that frequent marijuana smokers exhibit diminished motivation. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
47.
Toxicity Potential
Marijuana Madness Some researchers are collecting data that they claim shows that marijuana causes psychosis Some studies have found a correlation between marijuana use and psychotic symptoms. Participants admitted to having at least one psychotic symptoms. It is possible the people had psychotic symptoms prior to using marijuana. Since marijuana users typically use other psychoactive drugs, it is difficult to disentangle the influence of other drug use on the psychotic symptoms There is evidence that marijuana can increase the liklihood of psychotic episodes in individuals with a history of psychiatric problems. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
48.
Toxicity Potential
Driving ability: Research findings mixed Laboratory studies of computer- controlled driving simulations Marijuana produces significant impairment Epidemiological studies Little evidence that drivers who use marijuana alone are more likely to be involved in an accident Effects may be more severe in infrequent users © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
49.
Marijuana and American
Society Marijuana has become the single most important drug issue in the United States. Today 14 states have legalized medical marijuana and a dozen others will consider this in late 2010 In the 1960s and 1970s, there was a shift in attitude about marijuana Marijuana was found to be pretty innocuous Young people found out the government had been lying about drugs and it led to broad rejections of government information. Seniors who smoked marijuana peaked at 60% in the 1970s. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
50.
Marijuana and American
Society Changing attitudes toward decriminalization 1972 report recommended decriminalizing possession of small amounts for personal use and casual distribution of small amounts without monetary profit Beginning in 1973, several states altered laws Possession of small amounts of marijuana became a civil offense rather than a criminal offense Changing marijuana possession from a felony to a misdemeanor saved money on court costs, juries, and jails Usage rates went up, but not substantially In 2009, the AMA called upon the Federal government to rethink its classification of marijuana as a Schedule I drug. © 2011 McGraw-Hill Higher Education. All rights reserved.
51.
Marijuana and American
Society Changing attitudes toward decriminalization There are four factors toward the recent push Increasing amount of scientific evidence that marijuana is not as toxic as once thought While the economy in 2007 was crashing, billions of dollars were spent to stop illicit drug use. A growing number of Americans believe the government could tax the growth, transportation and sale of marijuana if it were legal. Reports of violence in Mexico due to the illicit drug trade.
