Medical organisations warn about regular use of cannabis

Medical organisations on Thursday welcomed the proposed decriminalisation of cannabis and applauded the government’s commitment to direct users to treatment rather than criminal justice. But their endorsement also included a list of warnings about regular use of the drug. According to the proposed reform, cannabis users will be allowed to grow their own plants at home and legally carry up to seven grams of the drug for personal use.  In a position paper, the Maltese Association of Psychiatry (MAP) warned that early regular use is associated with symptoms of psychosis and bipolar disorder in younger people. It noted that cannabis is the most commonly used illicit substance among Maltese youths and it said it can affect brain maturation in a negative way.

Cannabis use in pregnancy dangerous to unborn babies

Research currently available indicates there is significant risk to unborn babies through to childhood and adolescence in fetuses exposed to cannabis during pregnancy, the Malta College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and the Maltese Paediatric Association said in a joint statement. In their reaction to the proposed cannabis reform, the two organisations said that the legalisation of cannabis for non-medical use has been followed by progressive increases in its use in pregnancy. They urged parliament to proceed “with extreme caution” and “reconsider” the legalisation of the drug for non-medical purposes. According to the proposal, cannabis users will be allowed to grow their own plants at home and legally carry up to seven grams of the drug for personal use.
