Nationally representative data of cannabis-tobacco co-use have shown these substances are closely entwined and have significant adverse health consequences, though population-level harms of co-use are largely unknown. Current epidemiological research does not assess co-use in a manner that has yielded the necessary data to draw conclusions regarding health effects. This has given rise to a hidden population of co-users who go under-served. Therefore, this paper has two aims: 1) to review new challenges in the collection of co-use data due to rapidly changing regulations of cannabis and nicotine products, and 2) to provide recommendations for the terminology and assessment of co-use. We argue that: 1) the prevalence of co-use is not being assessed accurately at a population level and 2) changes in legalisation have created novel challenges, but without proper monitoring, the impact on co-use will go undetected. We propose a three-level tiered set of recommendations for co-use assessments, which includes assessments of cannabis, tobacco, and co-use metrics ranging from least burdensome (self-report of co-administered products) to most burdensome (assays, event-level data). We propose that clinical studies begin to incorporate cannabis-tobacco co-use assessments to justify better their inclusion in clinical trials and national surveillance surveys. Integration of co-use assessments will aid in understanding the true impact on co-use of the changing cannabis and tobacco/nicotine regulatory environments. Co-use is prevalent and problematic and the ability to make conclusions about its health outcomes is hindered by lack of nuance in data collection. If you don’t measure it, you can’t manage it.
