Abstract

Baby chicks were administered daily injections of δ 9-THC and records were kept of their body weight. The drug produced a marked decrease in weight gain. At 3 weeks of age, these animals were sacrificed and the concentration of various electrolytes in their brains was determined, along with another group of drug-naive animals. There were no differences in electrolyte concentrations for the chronically treated animals, but sodium and potassium levels were markedly increased in the acute group.
