THC Levels in Young People with Cannabis Overdose in the ER
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at the amount of THC (the active ingredient in cannabis) in the blood of children and teens who come to the emergency room with severe drowsiness or confusion after using cannabis. It will help doctors better understand how cannabis affects young people.
