How long does a cannabis high last?

Many people have questions and worries about the medical and recreational
use of cannabis now that it has been decriminalized. One of these is how
long the drug’s effects actually endure.

Though the link between alcohol and drunkenness has been questioned for
decades, evidence on how long marijuana use impairs a person has to rely on
hearsay rather than science.

This range was reduced using a meta-analysis of 80 studies from the past
year. The duration of the user’s inebriation might range from three to ten
hours after cannabis consumption, depending on factors including the method
of ingestion and the potency of the drug.

This data can be used to revise regulations to more accurately represent
the reality of cannabis impairment, improve advising material given to
patients, and aid recreational users in making more informed decisions
regarding activities like driving after using cannabis.
