The NBC News (8/26, Carroll) website reports, “Teens who used a concentrated form of marijuana – sometimes called dabs, wax, shatter or crumble – are more likely to also use other drugs than kids who avoid marijuana,” researchers concluded after surveying nearly “50,000 adolescents in Arizona.” Investigators “found that among teens who used any form of cannabis, 72 percent had experience with the more potent products.” The findings were published online in Pediatrics. HealthDay (8/26, Thompson) also covers the study.
