THC infused candy was found in two different local schools in the last week. One resulted in a pre-teen overdosing on THC. Be aware of alternate forms of THC, which include ingestion. The link at the bottom has several other types of candies.

 

This particular type has 400mg of THC. Please add this to your mental toolbox for differential diagnoses when treating any altered mental status. Effects can take from 30-60 minutes on ingestion.
