The public health relevance of cannabis potency indicators is evidenced by findings that THC concentration was associated with progression to the first symptom of CUD (1.4 times per each unit of THC [73]) and greater severity of CUD [74], especially among younger people. High-potency cannabis was also associated with increased risk of psychosis [75], and with frequency of use, cannabis-related problems and anxiety [76].
