Saskatchewan Federation of Police Officers 27 What you need to know ... (continued) Disclaimer: This information should not be considered legal or medical advice. Consumers, patients and healthcare practitioners are encouraged to report side effects (adverse reactions) from cannabis products to the producer of the product. Side effects may also be reported to Health Canada's Canada Vigilance Program. Cannabis use can cause adverse effects.Adverse effects can include rapid heart rate, dizziness, varying levels of anxiety, disorganized thoughts, memory loss, nausea, or vomiting. Serious adverse effects can also include psychotic episodes (abnormal behaviour, hallucinations, loss of touch with reality, and delusions), and seizures. General info Cannabis can be consumed in different ways.Two common ways are inhalation (smoking or vaping) and ingestion (eating or drinking). Each way carries different health and safety risks. Everyone's response to cannabis is different, depending on sex, age, any pre-existing medical conditions, experience with cannabis, frequency of use, THC and CBD content, and consumption of food, alcohol, other drugs or health products. Everyone's response to cannabis can also differ from one time to the next. THC causes the intoxicating effects (or "high") and the impairing effects, but it can also cause anxiety and other unpleasant and adverse effects. CBD is not intoxicating and may reduce some of the effects of THC; however, it does have an effect on the brain. Regardless of the method of consumption (smoking, vaping, eating or drinking cannabis), avoid consuming with nicotine, alcohol, other drugs or health products.This can increase impairment and the risk of other adverse effects. Store all cannabis (especially edible cannabis, which can be mistaken for normal food or drinks) securely and out of reach of children, youth, and pets. www.freepik.com/free-photos-vectors/food">Food photo created by topntp26
