Résumé :
Despite continued prohibition of most drugs for recreational use, drug use is common in the United States. In 2013, nearly half of adults aged 12 years and older reported lifetime use of illicit drugs (47%), with 44% reporting lifetime cannabis use (SAMHSA, 2014a). However, US federal law prohibits the manufacture, possession, sale, or consumption of cannabis. In addition, products containing a variety of synthetic cannabinoids (SCs), many of which are not controlled, have emerged in recent years. SCs include chemical compounds that bind to cannabinoid receptors in the brain (Brents and Prather, 2014 and Gurney et al., 2014). [Extract]
