    • Overview

      Medical and recreational cannabis laws are evolving and legal access to cannabis has expanded. This has correlated with increased hospital visits by both children and adults either due to exploratory ingestions or accidental overdose. The toxidromes are different in children and adults and overlap with other medical conditions. Healthcare providers should be aware of the factors in both children and adults that could lead to acute cannabis poisoning.
