With that in mind, the study aimed “to understand the characteristics of older Veterans who enrolled in the Medical Cannabis Patient Program in Illinois and analyze their health outcomes and co-use of cannabis and opioids using longitudinal survey data.”

This is huge:

The study found that about 20.4% of those who indicated marijuana use only in the initial survey started to co-use opioids in the follow-up survey, “while 44.1% of those who indicated the use of both substances in the initial survey reported no longer using opioids in the follow-up survey.”​
