People who use cannabis on a regular basis could require up to two times the usual level of sedation when undergoing medical procedures,Researchers in Colorado compared medical records from 250 patients who received general anesthesia during endoscopic procedures. Of those patients, 225 said they did not use cannabis; only 25 of the study’s cohort claimed to smoke or ingest cannabis on a daily or weekly basis.
"Cannabis has some metabolic effects we don't understand and patients need to know that their cannabis use might make other medications less effective,” said lead researcher Dr. Mark Twardowski in a statement. But experts note that the study is extremely preliminary and would require a much larger, more controlled study environment in order to provide firm evidence of how cannabis use may interact with medical procedures.
Busse noted that although the study had several limitations, he agreed with the author’s point that recreational cannabis use could become more common with legalization. Tracking that data and researching the potential implications will be important for both medical protocols and patient care, he said.

Well I went for minor sergury a few weeks ago and the doctor told me not to smoke any weed 3days before ... I didn't listen and smoked the night before and nothing happened , I was out cold for the procedure...so I'm gonna call b.s on this ... Why are you so anti pot ?
This study was done by Osteopathic doctors or more commonly referred to as chiropractors. They are also anti-vaxxers.
25 patience out of 250 required 14% more....how is this even news worthy?
I swear CTV is bias on the subject.....not much journalism going on here...mostly fear mongering.
And I may or may not read this article....
May interfere? Please complete the study when you know if it does or does not.
