National Commission
on Marihuana and Drug Abuse
Investigations
of Very Heavy, Very Long-Term Cannabis Users
In Marihuana: A
Signal of Misunderstanding - Commissioned by President Richard M. Nixon,
March, 1972.
Proving a causal
relationship between the use of any substance and an associated illness
or condition is extremely difficult. Ideally, prospective longitudinal
studies on large populations of both substance users and nonusers matched
for socioeconomic and psycho-cultural variables should be performed
for many years in order to detect subtle or cumulative effects. Unfortunately,
the enormous expenditures of research effort and finances that would
be required for a large scale investigation of this nature are prohibitive.
Consequently, carefully
designed and controlled, clinical and epidemiological studies of very
heavy, very long-term cannabis users in foreign countries must be relied
upon to provide important data on possible effects because these populations
are not obtainable in the United States.
GREECE
Preliminary results
(Freedman and Fink 1971, Fink and Dornbush 1971, Fink 1971) from an
intensive medical, neurological, and psychiatric study of 31 male chronic
hashish users in Greece, performed under contract to the National Institute
of Mental Health, have revealed few abnormalities in these individuals.
Non-users matched for socioeconomic, and psycho-cultural factors including
life style, alcohol and tobacco consumption and nutrition and general
health have not been studied.
In collaboration
with Professors Miras and Stefanis in Athens, Fink and co-workers are
studying a population of chronic hashish users that Professor Miras
has known for many years. The population studied is composed of 31 male
subjects ranging in age from 26 to 69 years with a mean of 46 years.
The subjects report
starting hashish use at 13 to 35 years of age with a mean of 19. They
have -used hashish from 10 to 49 years, with a median of 28 years. In
the past they used an average of eight grams of hashish daily with a
range of 2 to 24: grams daily. (The hashish it estimated to contain
4% THC on the average. Therefore, average daily use was 320 mg. of THC).
In the past, 27
of the subjects were daily -users and four used every other day. Frequently
of hashish use per day was: once per day-2 subjects, twice per day-6
subjects, three times per day-14 subjects, four times per day-4 subjects,
and five, or more times per day-5 subjects.
The men reported
a reduction in drug use with time ascribed to increasing difficulty
in obtaining adequate supplies due to increased enforcement of the drug
regulations. At present they use an average of three grams of hashish
daily (320 mg. of THC) with a range of one to 10 grams daily.
Twelve now use hashish
daily, eight use, every other day and 11 use less frequently. Frequency
of daily hashish use is: once per day-5 subjects, twice per day-12 subjects,
three times per day-10 subjects, four times per day-2 subjects, and
gve(sic) or more times per day-2 subjects.
The men are primarily
hashish users. One has used opiates. Two are heavy users of alcohol
and six report occasional to frequent use of alcohol at the present
time. Tobacco is smoked by all subjects averaging 40 cigarettes per
day.
Twenty-three of
the subjects report periods of abstinence from hashish averaging ten
months but up to three years. Hashish use is primarily social by 20
subjects, and 15 subjects smoke in solitude.
Pipes and cigarettes
in which hashish is mixed with tobacco are used interchangeably. The
usual time of smoking is after work (21 subjects) but 12 subjects smoke
before work and five smoke anytime.
In this population,
the median education is three-and-a-half years of school with a range
of none to nine. Five of the men are illiterate. Twenty-one of the men
are married, one is cohabiting, four are single and five are divorced
or separated.
All of the married
men are employed and support their families. The subjects report changing
their jobs frequently and 11 had periods of unemployment from three
to 120 months. Ten were classified as skilled workers and 21 as unskilled
workers. Their jobs include selling scrap metals, general labor, cartage,
messenger, maintenance assistants, etc.
Arrests are common
and 19 report at least one non-hashish related arrest. Eighteen have
been in regular military service, six were exempt because of hashish
use and seven for other reasons.
Interestingly, 10
of the 15 wives interviewed prefer the behavior and attitudes of their
husbands when they are using hashish compared to when they are drug-free.
In regard to family
and personal background 20 had refugee parents, 13 had alcoholic or
hashish using fathers, 26 had three or more siblings, 19 had dominant
mothers. Fifteen of 21 had dominant wives. Seven reported broken homes
under age 16.
Apparently, the
subjects participation in society is consistent with their lower socioeconomic
background. No gross behavioral deviation was detected I in this population.
Psychiatric status
was evaluated by history and psychiatric interview. Nine have had psychiatric
hospitalization of which three were in the military and related to hashish
use. Two have, had psychiatric outpatient treatment. Eight had histories
of neurotic traits during childhood. In their psychiatric evaluation,
three men are considered to have psychiatric pathology. Two of these
were considered sociopaths on the basis of homosexuality and criminal
behavior. The third was diagnosed as a schizophrenic. No overt signs
of any organic mental syndrome were detected. None of the three men
were believed to require psychiatric intervention. The schizophrenic,
although suspicious and withdrawal, is a successful business man and
lives with his family on weekends.
Complete physical
and neurological examination revealed three prominent findings. All
had very poor dentition which the men ascribed to hashish smoking. Chronic
bronchitis was detected in 14 of the men and emphysema in three others.
This finding is not surprising because all subjects were tobacco cigarette
smokers averaging 40 cigarettes per day, in addition to their very heavy
hashish consumption. Enlarged livers were also found in nine of the
31 subjects.
Because no extensive
psychological test battery has been developed or standardized in Greece,
American tests were used. These tests are not culture-free, and it is
possible that certain items or subtests were inappropriate for the subjects
because they had not acquired the type of knowledge or skills required
due to their poor level of education.
The Wechsler-Bellevue
I.Q. tests were translated into Greek and administered. Because of these,
factors, comparison of level of performance between these subjects and
white middle class Americans is meaningless.
The mean I.Q. is
86 with a range of 69 to 109. The mean verbal is 90.3 and the mean performance
was 83.6. The group of subjects performed lower than expected on digit
symbol, digit span and similarities but higher than expected on comprehension,
arithmetic, vocabulary and picture completion. The Ravens Progression
Matrices showed a similar pattern and mean I.Q. The significance of
these findings will depend on a comparison with a matched nonuser population.
Resting electroencephalograms
were obtained in 30 subjects and evaluated independently by four experts.
Twenty-five were within normal limits.
Testing was incomplete
in one record. One record in a subject who had a head injury within
the prior three months showed focal slowing.
Two of the four
experts judged the remaining three, records as showing low degrees of
average to low voltage theta activity indicative of cerebral dysfunction.
The remaining two experts judged these records as within normal limits.
This medical and
psychological data suggests some effects of very long term, very heavy
hashish use. Without a matched comparison group, factors independent
of hashish use, such as age, socioeconomic conditions, or environmental
conditions, may account for the observed changes.
However, the researchers
note that these men have survived chronic hashish use in high doses
without gross behavioral deviation.
JAMAICA
Another foreign
investigation (Ruben et al., 1972) conducted in Jamaica (under contract
for the National Institute of Mental Health) studied chronic cannabis
users and matched nonuser controls. Preliminary findings have shown
little evidence of significant differences between the two groups in
the extensive anthropological, medical, psychiatric and psychological
investigations.
Ganja use is widespread
and endemic in the Jamaican lowest socioeconomic strata, and in particular
in a millenial-religious sect known as the Rastafarians. More than 50%
of all male Jamaicans are estimated to use some form of cannabis, and
probably about 20% are regular heavy users of ganja.
The drug was brought
to Jamaica from India over 130 years ago by indentured East Indian laborers.
However, presently the heaviest ganja users are Afro-Jamaicans who comprise
90% of the population.
The Rastafarian
religious sect, founded by Marcus Garvey, preach a "Back to Africa"
destiny and claim Haile Selassie to be God. The Rastafarians have always
worn. long hair and beards and dressed eccentrically. They believe that
"the herb" was given them by God to help them to understand
his wisdom exemplified in their greeting, "Peace and Love."
The Rastas reject
the values of the dominant society and regard the government as "the
powers of Babylon". They have, chosen to opt out of conventional
society and instead work and live in a communal existence in poverty.
They emphasize the value of ganja in achieving a new level of meaning
in this existence.
The Rastafarians
add ganja to their infant first bath and start feeding the drug to their
infants from the time of weaning in an infusion known as ganja tea.
They continue to smoke and drink the drug throughout life.
They, like many
other Jamaicans, believe in its medicinal properties especially for
asthma and indigestion and promotion of healing; that it gives protection
from evil spirits; that it cleanses the skin and purifies the blood;
that it promotes sexual vigor; that it gives energy for work and relieves
fatigue and provides relaxation after work.
Extensive in-depth
studies have been carried out by a team of anthropologists from The
Research Institute for the Study of Man in conjunction with The Departments
of Psychiatry, Pathology, Physiology and Medicine, of the University
of the West Indies. Anthropology field workers lived for extensive periods
of time in five rural communities (including fishing, farming and cane
cutting areas) and two urban districts.
Over 2,000 people
were observed and studied in these communities. Overall life styles
of the ganja users were not notably different from nonusing individuals
in the Jamaican lowest socioeconomic strata. Users are working, maintaining
stable families and homes, and actively participating in their society.
No evidence was noted of crime or aggressive behavior or drug use other
than alcohol related to ganja use. No evidence of physical dependence
was demonstrated. Minimal psychological dependence was observed but
no drug craving was expressed.
Thirty long-term
ganja smokers and 30 nonusers matched demographically to control factors
other than ganja use, were chosen as representative of this functioning
lower socioeconomic population and selected for intensive hospital study
in order to determine, differences between the two groups.
The mean age of
the subjects was 33 with a range of 23 to 51. The primary occupation
of one-third of the subjects was farming. The next most common occupations
were, fishing, skilled and semiskilled laborers. Half practiced no formal
religion, five were Rastafarians and the remainder practiced a wide
variety of traditional religious. Almost three-fourths of the males
had stable "marriages" and the remaining single subjects were
predominantly the younger ones.
The subjects were
divided into three groups. Twenty-three were nonganja smokers, 28 were
regular daily ganja smokers and 9 were occasional ganja smokers using
the drug several times a we or less. Three types of regular ganja smokers
were delineated: light smokers using one to four spliffs daily moderate
smokers using four to seven spliffs daily; and heavy smokers using eight
or more spliffs per day.
Age of first use
ranged from 8-36 years of age. Regular use of ganja occurred at a median
age of 16 years with a range of 9-25 years. All ganja smokers had used
the drug at least 7 years and some up to 37 years with a mean of 17.5
years.
The ganja users
consumer on the average seven spliffs of ganja daily with a range of
one to 24 per day. The typical ganja cigarette or cigar, termed a spliff
is roughly a four-inch-long paper cone and contains about two to three
grams of ganja with a delta 9 THC content of about 2.9% on the average
(range of 0.7-10.3%) mixed with about half of a Tobacco cigarette. Also
many smoke ganja in a Chillum pipe using very deep inhalation to fill
their lungs with smoke. They consume 14 pipe fulls per week on the average,
with a range of 1-25 per week.
No significant differences
in neurological abnormalities, electroencephalographic abnormalities,
hemochemical changes including liver function, urinalysis, chest X-ray
abnormalities or chromosome damage in lymphocytes were found in the
users or controls.
One user had a long
history of bronchial asthma and another had a mild case of Jamaican
neuropathy, but nothing suggests these disabilities were in any way
related to ganja use. Minor electrocardiographic abnormalities were
present in about one-third of both users and controls. This may be related
to a syndrome of unknown etiology known as Jamaican cardiomiyopathy.
Thorough physical
examination and hematological studies revealed only minimal significant
differences between ganja smokers and non-ganja smoking controls. Comprehensive
evaluation of red blood cell indices revealed that the ganja smokers
had significantly higher hemoglobin levels and packed red cell volumes
(hematocrit) than the non-ganja smokers.
These hematologic
findings are compatible with those reported recently (Sangan and Balberzak,
1971) for heavy tobacco cigarette smokers. The authors noted that cigarette
smoking causes a functional tissue hypoxia due to deficits in lung func
tionwith resultant arterial oxygen unsaturation. Thus, an increased
demand is placed on the bone marrow to provide more red blood cells
to increase the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.
In addition to the
heavy smoking of ganja in spliffs and pipes, 27 of the 30 ganja smokers
were tobacco smokers, and several have smoked tobacco cigarettes heavily.
19 of the 30 non-ganja smokers were tobacco cigarette smokers and tended
to be light tobacco cigarette smokers.
Thus, the data appears
to suggest that a combination of factors including number of years and
quantity of cigarette smoking, ganja spliff smoking and ganja chilum
pipe smoking is significantly correlated with the hematological changes
indicative of functional hypoxia. However, pulmonary function studies
did not demonstrate significant decrements correlated with ganja or
tobacco smoking.
No significant differences
were found between groups by a thorough psychiatric and psychological
examination. All subjects were judged to be in normal mental health.
Subjects were administered a battery of standardized reliable American
psychological tests known to be sensitive to impairment in brain function.
These tests were not culture free so that comparison of performance,
between Jamaicans and Americans is meaningless Nineteen tests evaluating
47 variables were performed including one personality test, three tests
of intelligence and verbal abilities, and 15 neuropsychological tests.
Two of 47 variables
had statistically significant differences between ganja smokers and
non-smokers. The smokers scored higher on the digit span subtest of
the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and bad a more centralized personality
organization on the Lowenfeld Mosaic Test.
Non-smokers had
the best performance on the number of edge contacts with the non-dominant
hand on the Holes Test. These few significant differences were considered
chance findings by the investigators.
In general no consistent
differences were found on these psychological tests between ganja smokers
and non-smokers. The data clearly indicate that the long-term ganja
use by these men did not produce demonstrable intellectual or ability
deficits when they were without the drug for three days. No evidence
in these results suggest permanent brain damage.
The alleged role
of ganja in producing personality change in the direction of a loss
of competitive striving and an unwillingness to work, termed the amotivational
syndrome was also investigated.
Based on clinical
impressions gained from careful sociological and psychological techniques,
the investigators noted that the chronic ganja smoker differed little
in work habits or record from his matched control. No evidence of an
amotivational syndrome was found. In fact, the subjects believe ganja
has a functional value as a work adjunct. It provides energy for work
and helps them do arduous boring jobs.
In the Jamaican
culture, ganja may produce a "motivational syndrome". In an
objective videotape evaluation of work energy output and ganja smoking,
ganja use did not lower productivity on simple repetitive tasks, such
as woodcutting which requires compulsive concentrated effort.
A study of cultivators
points up the relationship of population, land, and economic pressures
to ganja use. In the area studied land resources are scarce, farms small
and cultivation difficult on the hilly slopes. Market conditions determine
income from cash crops and restrictions on migration maintain population
pressures on limited resources.
For these farmers,
the researchers suggest that ganja use, decreases total cultivated acreage
and consolidates production while disruption of competition and social
cohesiveness among the farmers is avoided.
These data may indicate
that heavy ganja use during cultivation in farming situations with limited
alternatives may serve to maintain the status quo. However, it is possible
that the compulsive concentrated effort experienced by the cultivators
with heavy ganja use may be productive in areas with good soil and climatic
conditions where systematic weeding can increase crop yields.
As a result of the
extensive anthropological study, the investigators believe that ganja
use in Jamaica is a culturally determined phenomenon. A "ganja
complex" exists which consists of closely related, learned patterns
of behavior manifested by the members of the society.
The ganja complex
appears to be functional for the working-class Jamaican. Various elements
Of the complex including economic, social and personal are interrelated
in ways that contribute to operation of the whole culture.
AFGHANISTAN
Dr. Salamuddin Weiss
(1971) studied 1011 chronic hashish users in Kabul in order to obtain
a general picture of the charas habit in Afghanistan.
Cannabis is cultivated
in this tropical country. A concentrated product, charas, the resin
obtained from the flowering tops of the female plant, is the preparation
generally used. The most common method of smoking charas is in a clay
water pipe called a Chelum. Next most commonly used is a pipe or needle
and straw. Infrequently, charas is smoked in tobacco cigars or cigarettes.
Chewing the leaves or drinking a charas mixture as a confection is quite
rare.
Although charas
smokers are found throughout society, they are predominantly found in
certain groups. The ages of the subjects studied ranged from 13 to 70
years old. More than 75% were, married. Almost all were males.
Socioeconomic status
was as follows: 70%, lower, 28% middle and 2% upper. 82% are illiterate,
27% had a primary school education and less than 1% had any higher education.
Most smoking occurs
in groups of two to 20 friends in quiet out of the way places. Most
users smoke several times a day. The longer one has smoked charas, the
shorter the duration of the high and the more often the individual can
smoke each day.
Weakness, sexual
difficulties and physical impotence are commonly reported by smokers.
Most report they have a good appetite and eat more than normal, but
malnutrition is common.
One hundred chronic
smokers were selected at random and examined medically: 93 were malnourished;
no evidence of illness was found in 79 subjects; 13 showed signs of
respiratory illness (bronchitis) ; 7 showed sleep disturbances and one
had pulmonary tuberculosis. No deaths have been reported from charas
overdose. One subject out of the 1,011 was known to be chronically psychotic.
A review of over
150,000 outpatient and inpatient psychiatric visits per year over the
past 10 years revealed 20 short-term psychotic episodes yearly involving
charas alone and 16, short-term psychotic episodes yearly involving
both charas and other drugs. An absence of chronic mental illness related
to charas use was noteworthy.
Most charas smokers
commence use during their teens, gradually increasing their use about
five or six times until they reach their highest dose between the ages
of 20 to 40 years.
At the extreme,
smokers have raised their daily dosage up to 10 times their starting
dose within the first two years. They then gradually decrease their
daily requirement by about 50% upon reaching their 60's. Generally,
most smokers cease charas use after their 60's, but some. use extremely
low doses for the rest of their lives.
I These patterns
of use are consistent with the development of tolerance. Additionally,
chronic smokers note they are able to use larger doses than they did
when they began use without any significant signs of intoxication. Also
after stopping charas use for a few days or months, the users report
they restart use at smaller doses to achieve the desired effect.
No physical dependence
was noted. Marked psychological dependence was present which makes it
difficult to stop their habitual use. Discontinuation of charas use
produced mild psychologic abstinence signs. These signs, generally include
restlessness loss of appetite, sleeplessness, nervousness, headache,
and gastrointestinal upset.
Most smokers after
discontinuation of use are quite able to live with their families and
perform their jobs without discomfort. Most chronic smokers return to
charas use within days or months. Out of a group of 100 randomly selected
ex-smokers who had used for eight to 22 years, 42 have not returned
to charas use, 16 use occasionally and 42 have returned to daily use
within one to 13 months.
Most common explanation
given by the subjects for restarting use were to continue close relationships
with charas using friends and lack of a busy job.
A group of 100 opium
addicts were selected at random from the community; 51 of these started
their drug use with charas and later substituted opium for charas.
Generally, charas
smokers report that they become faster in their daily jobs, but observation
reveals a slowness in these activities. The ability to perform a non-complicated
job is comparable to non-charas smokers. They tend to be cooperative
but lazy persons. They tend to be more theoretical than practical and
avoid making decisions. They do not demonstrate creativity or contribute
significantly to the improvement of their community.
Summary
Marihuana has been
used by man in countries around the world for many centuries. Scientifically,
more is known about marihuana's effects than many other botanical substances
consumed by man.
Marihuana is one
of several preparations from the plant, cannabis sativa. The plant contains
many different chemicals, but tetrahydrocannabinol appears to be the
major active psychopharmacologic ingredient. The potency of the preparation
is determined by the THC content, which varies according to the origin
of the seed, the conditions of cultivation, and the extent of manicuring.
Several important
factors exert significant influences on the psychopharmacological effect.
These include dose, method of use, set and setting, and pattern of use
including frequency and duration of use.
The acute subjective
experience is dose-dependent. At low doses commonly used in this country
a mild intoxication occurs, but at higher doses psychotomimetic experiences
can occur. Few consistent physiological effects are noted. No pathologic
bodily changes have been conclusively demon, strafed from acute use.
Subtle effects on recent memory, psychomotor function, and social behavior
have been demonstrated.
The margins of safety
between the effective dose and the toxic dose is quite large. No human
fatalities have been noted in this country caused by marihuana. The
most common adverse reactions are becoming too intoxicated, and the
acute anxiety panic reaction. Both of these are transient and related
to dose consumed as well as set and setting factors.
Acute psychotic,
reactions are quite rare. They usually last a few days to weeks and
occur in predisposed persons either with preexisting mental disorders
or borderline personalities especially under stressful conditions. Transient
acute brain syndrome or toxic psychosis is possible at extremely large
doses.
Evidence has accumulated
which indicates that differential tolerance does develop at least, in
persons who smoke large amounts of marihuana several times a day. Development
of tolerance to the depressant effects on behavior appears to precede
development of tolerance to the intoxicant effect.
Physical dependence
has not been demonstrated. Little, if any, psychological dependence
is present in most intermittent marihuana users. Moderate psychological
dependence occurs in moderate to heavy users and marked psychological
dependence has been described in very heavy chronic users.
Some detrimental
effects have been conclusively linked to short- and long-term marihuana
use for very heavy users. The most frequently reported change in the
heavy, long-term smokers of large quantities of potent preparations
is chronic bronchitis comparable to that developed by a heavy, long-term
tobacco cigarette smoker. A chronic cannabis psychosis probably occurs
rarely in heavy chronic, hashish smokers in Eastern countries. Most
psychotic episodes are the acute variety and clear in a few days to
weeks. No objective evidence has been demonstrated that even very heavy,
long-term hashish use causes organic brain damage.
Objective studies
of chronic, heavy smokers of potent preparations have not causally linked
this drug with the amotivational syndrome which has been described by
many clinicians. Almost all chronic, heavy hashish smokers are indistinguishable
from their peers in the lower socioeconomic strata of their respective
societies in social behavior, work performance, mental status and overall
life style.
