The Effects of Marijuana Use on Transitions through Stages of Alcohol Involvement for Men and Women in the NESARC I and II.

Conclusions: Results suggest that marijuana use impacts progression to more serious stages of alcohol involvement for both men and women, as well as hinders remission among women. Findings point to the importance of screening those with marijuana histories for alcohol problems, as well as the need to understand the mechanism of why marijuana use may increase the risk of alcohol problems.
