Recreational use of marijuana: Current experience and information for nephrologists.

Abstract

Support for legalizing the recre- ational use of marijuana has been steadily climbing. While there has been a decline in marijuana-related convictions and increase in state rev- enues, the .impact on public health and safety is not clear. The nephrology community must be aware of the complications of chronic marijuana use, such as recurrent acute kidney injury secondary to hyperemesis.
