There are several studies on the topic of cannabis concentrates and psychosis expected this year. Cannabis legalization has picked up speed in the U.S. over the last few years. The topic has become one of those unlikely things that people with differing political parties agree on, a substance that is now accepted, if not embraced, by many. Still, popular opinion differs on policies, an issue made strikingly clear by the amount of research there is to date on the drug. U.S. states that have enabled marijuana programs are now finding themselves rushing to study the drug and its possible side effects. Its long-term influence is not known, especially in relation to potent versions of THC and the effect that may have on the brain. Marijuana’s potency has increased over the years, particularly in concentrate products such as wax and shatter, which in the U.S. can have THC levels as high as 85 percent. For reference, a joint with a high potency may have about 20 percent THC. Several studies have found links between THC and mental health conditions, including psychosis.
