概要

Cannabis cessation and neurocognitive recovery: Patterns, predictors, and clinical implications—a systematic review

The American Journal on Addictions

Researchers conducted a literature review of the neurocognitive effects of cannabis use and recovery from those effects. They found a range of neurocognitive effects including neuroreceptor adaptation, decrease in memory, processing speeds, and attention. Deficits increased with higher frequency and amount of use, but recovery can occur.  Receptor normalization can occur within weeks of abstinence while cognitive recovery can take months and years. Adolescent-onset users have more severe and persistent deficits, suggesting effects to neurodevelopment beyond reversible neuroadaptation. The authors suggest treatment for cannabis use disorder should focus on both the disorder and its neurocognitive effects.
