Abstract

The consumption of Cannabis has been related with different psychiatric disorders. However the role of this drug in the etiology of disorders has not yet precisely been established. It has been discussed that the existence of an Induced Psychosis is brought about by the consumption of Cannabis. The objective of our study is to determine if there exists specific characteristics in the psychotic disorders manifested after the Cannabis consumption in comparison with a group of Psychotics non consumers. We also defined the risk factors that influence the appearance of the psychopathologic troubles.
