Abstract

Since 2007 there has been a consistent rise in the use of cannabis with data revealing an increased use of 10.4% to 13.3% from 2002 to 2015, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). Today, there is an estimated 55 million (16.9%) Americans who currently use marijuana in 2022, according to the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics [1]. Specifically, cannabis use is most prevalent in young adults (age 18-25 years) and among men, although there is a general increase in its use among both genders.
