|  |  |  | blunt: Encyclopedia II - Cannabis drug - Immediate effects of human consumptionThe nature and intensity of the immediate effects of cannabis consumption vary according to the dose, the species or hybridization of the source plant, the method of consumption, the user's mental and physical characteristics (such as possible tolerance), and the environment of consumption. Effects of cannabis consumption may be loosely classified as cognitive and physical. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the Cannabis sativa species tends to produce more of the cognitive or perceptual effects, while Cannabis indica tends to produce more of the physical effects.

There is little conclusive scientific evidence about the long-term effects of human cannabis consumption. The findings of earlier studies purporting to demonstrate the effects of the drug are unreliable and generally regarded as junk science, as the studies were flawed, with strong bias and poor methodology. The most significant confounding factor is the use of other drugs, including alcohol and tobacco, by test subjects in conjunction with cannabis. When subjects using on ...

|  |  |  | blunt: Encyclopedia II - Cannabis drug - New breeding and cultivation techniquesAdvances in breeding and cultivation techniques have increased the diversity and potency of cannabis strains over the last 20 years, and these strains are now widely smoked all over the world. These advances- the sinsemilla technique, breeding, seed banks, hydroponics, cloning, lighting techniques, sea of green, etc— have been in part a response to prohibition enforcement efforts which have made outdoor cultivation more risky, and so efficient indoor cultivation more common.
The increases in potency - and ramifications thereo ...

|  |  |  | blunt: Encyclopedia II - Codeine - PharmacokineticsCodeine is considered a prodrug, since it is metabolised in vivo to the principal active analgesic agent morphine. It is, however, less potent than morphine since only about 10% of the codeine is converted. It also has a correspondingly lower dependence-liability than morphine.
Theoretically, a dose of approximately 200 mg (oral) of codeine must be administered to give equivalent analgesia to 30 mg (oral) of morphine (Rossi, 2004). It is not used, however, in single doses of greater than 60mg (and no more than 240 mg i ...

|  |  |  | blunt: Encyclopedia II - Codeine - Adverse effectsCommon adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with the use of codeine include: Itching, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, dry mouth, miosis, orthostatic hypotension, urinary retention and constipation. (Rossi, 2004)
Tolerance to many of the effects of codeine develop with prolonged use, including therapeutic effects. The rate at which this occurs develops at different rates for different effects, with tolerance to the constipation-inducing effects developing particularly slowly for instance.
A potentially serious ADR, as with other opioids, is respiratory depression. This depression is dose-related and is the mechanism for the ...

The leaf was and is chewed almost universally by some indigenous communities, but there is no evidence that its habitual use ever led to any of the negative consequences generally associat ...
