According to findings that were in the journal JAMA Network Open, first timers who use marijuana and don’t use it regularly, may find vaping to be too much.

Vaping delivers greater amounts of THC, which increases the likelihood of adverse reactions, according to researchers.

“What our study suggests is that some people who use cannabis infrequently need to be careful about how much cannabis they use with a vaporizer,” explains Ryan Vandrey, associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.

“They should not drive, even within several hours after use. It could be dangerous for themselves and others, and on top of that, they may experience negative effects such as anxiety, nausea, vomiting, and even hallucinations.”

“Our participants had substantially higher impairment on the tasks when vaping versus smoking the same dose, which in the real world translates to more functional impairment when driving or performing everyday tasks,” said postdoctoral fellow Tory Spindle.
