Q: What are the short-term effects of marijuana use?
A: The short-term effects of marijuana include:
problems with memory and learning ;
distorted perception (sights, sounds, time, touch)
trouble with thinking and problemsolving;
loss of motor coordination; and
increased heart rate.
These effects are even greater when other drugs are mixed with the marijuana; and users do not always know what drugs are given to them.
