ABSTRACT

Cannabis is the world´s most widely marketed, cultivated and consumed illegal drug. The recreational use of cannabis leads to psychoactive effects, which could frequently produce adverse effects, because the dose is not well defined and the clinical manifestations vary according to age. In this article, we present the case report of a teenager who presents a clinical case compatible with a pericarditis, after a high intake of this drug.
