Résumé :
As a result of cannabis liberalisation in North America, legal cannabis-based industries are developing and a new generation of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-containing products are emerging. Novel and attractive designs are now available, such as cannabis sweets and recreational vape pens with flavoured and highly concentrated cannabis oil cartridges. Therefore, cannabis legalisation is not only allowing recreative or therapeutic users to legally use cannabis; it also opens up opportunities for the cannabis industry to attract new customers. However, these new products are a concern since they could cause accidental and unintentional poisonings, particularly in children. [Extract]
