Short-term Effects
When smoked, the short-term effects of cannabis manifest within seconds and are fully apparent within a few minutes, typically lasting for 1-3 hours, varying by the person and the strain of marijuana. The duration of noticeable effects has been observed to diminish due to prolonged, repeated use and the development of a tolerance to cannabinoids.

Why am I forc’d, like Heav’n, against my mind,

How ill my Fear they by my Mercy scan,
Beware the Fury of a Patient Man.”
