Résumé :
Thirty states have legalized cannabis in some form. Cannabis potency is largely estimated from cannabis seized in drug raids and state-controlled producers. Little data exists about the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content and form of products commercially available.
Recreational states have defined potency thresholds in edibles, limiting THC to 50 or 100 mg per package and 5 or 10 mg per serving depending on the state. No clear limit exists on THC in other product forms. In addition, while recreational states prohibit false marketing claims and advertising aimed at children, no data exists on how well regulations are enforced.
We collected data on form, THC concentration, and associated marketing claims of products in dispensaries to better understand products available and marketing targeted at the public. [Extract]
