Cannabis linked to psychosis reduction
Research in Australia suggests cannabis contains a compound that may help to reduce psychosis.
Consumption of cannabis has previously been linked with an increased risk of psychosis because of the effects of tetrahydrocannabinol which creates a "high".
However, a researcher at Melbourne's Monash University says another compound called cannabidiol has been found to reduce drug-induced behavioural disturbances in mice.
Leonora Long says the compound could be developed to treat people with schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders.
Ms Long says researchers now plan to investigate how the two compounds interact.
