Cannabis’s Effects on Memory Could Be Related to Disruption in Sleep
Researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas have found that long-term cannabis use is linked to sleep difficulties, which may worsen memory problems associated with the substance. While past studies examined the effects of cannabis on sleep and memory separately, this new research, published June 25 in the American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, explores how all three factors are interconnected. The findings aim to inform medical marijuana users, prescribing physicians, and the public about the relationship between cannabis use and memory issues.
