What to do?","slug":"high-cbd-to-thc-ratio-does-not-work-at-all-for-me-1-1-makes-me-stoned-neither-give-relief-what-to-do","content":"\n_____________________\nHello,\n CBD:THC ratios can range from 1:1 up to 22:1, perhaps your dispensary pharmacist can work with you to titrate you to your optimal dose somewhere in between. Every body is different and can react differently to various medications. Many people however, have found great pain relief with medical cannabis and encountered far less negative side effects than other pain relief drugs. I would recommend you to gradually titrate down from a high CBD to THC ratio towards the 1:1 until you find the relief you need without feeling the psychoactive effects of the THC. \n\ntatiananp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10357-markdown","title":"Are the effects of an edible the same as the effects of smoking marijuana?","slug":"are-the-effects-of-an-edible-the-same-as-the-effects-of-smoking-marijuana","content":"\"For example, will the effects of consuming 65mg of THC in an edible be the same as if I smoked a join with 65mg of THC?\"\n_____________________\nThe effects are different but this difference is also different for everyone.  In general, absorption of cannabinoids in the blood stream is much faster for an inhalation product than consuming my mouth/ PO.  The lungs are richly fed w/ blood through the pulmonary circulation;  absorption by mouth requires waiting till the item reaches the stomach and intestine.  In general,  it only takes minutes for pts to feel an effect from cannabis after inhalation;  for edibles this can vary from 30- 90+  minutes (also depending on how much food was in the stomach).  In addition, many pt's have told me that ingestion often brings about a more tactile experience but this is only one observation.  Most health professionals in the cannabis field would agree that the observed effects for edibles/ PO last longer (up to 6-8 hrs)  vs 1-2 hrs via the inhalation route.  However, these are purely based on pooled observational data & other clinicians probably can add to the list of observed differences between cannabis inhaled vs. PO/ by mouth. ;  more long term studies are required.  I hope this helps!\n\ndrpark","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10328-markdown","title":"Can a person purchase low THC for baking? Will it take arthritis pain away?","slug":"can-a-person-purchase-low-thc-for-baking-will-it-take-arthritis-pain-away","content":"\n_____________________\nIf you have a recommendation letter, then you can buy THC products at a dispensary.  There are great topical cannabis products/lotions/creams to rub into areas of arthritis. Additionally, if you take CBD-only tincture daily, and then 50/50% THC/CBD blend for \"breakthrough pain\", you may get overall less pain and fewer \"pain flare-ups\".

","slug":"some-pain-rubs-contain-cbd-only-others-thc-only-and-some-a-combination-what-is-the-difference","content":"\n_____________________\nThc is the psycho active part of the flower. It is essentially what gives you the \"high\" feeling. CBD, or cannabidoids(poss wrong spelling), are essentialy the pain relieving part of the flower\n\ncaliguymikey\n_____________________\nCBD stands for cannabidiol and THC is short of 9-delta-tetrahydrocannabinol.  Both are the two most commonly found cannabinoids in cannabis (there have been over 50+ cannabinoids identified and further research is being done on how these compounds work).  Between THC & CBD,  THC is thought to be more psychoactive but CBD has some psychoactivity as well (the term psychoactive, IMHO , is not very useful because items such as sugar and caffeine are by definition also psychoactive).  THC and CBD are both useful for different types of pain.  In my experience having a little THC and CBD is more useful than having products (like this question, a topical) of just THC or CBD because of a synergistic interaction of these two cannabinoids  on the human body's natural endocannabinoid (EC)  receptor system called the \"enrourage effect\"  You can type up \"CBD\", \"THC\", \"endocannabinoid system\" in the handy search bar at the top of the HelloMD website for more information.

CBD has been shown to provide pain relief especially when paired with THC. CBD counteracts the unwanted side effects of THC. If you'd like to avoid THC, there are CBD dominant cannabis products that can work for you. You can also use cannabis infused topical creams and salves that won't enter your bloodstream.\n\ntatiananp\n_____________________\nYou can try our non-psychoactive pain reliever that contains whole plant cannabis, turmeric, and ginger. It doesn't get you stoned, but takes away all your pain. Safe for daytime use. \n\nnixie","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10249-markdown","title":"I'm looking for a 8:1 CBD: THC tincture.

Maybe you should really lower the THC to a very low dose but consider trying a low dose CBD dominant tincture instead. You may just need more CBDs to calm your heart but start very low and slowly increase your dosage. Have you been using cannabis previously? Have you had this problem with your heart before now? Are you taking pharmaceutical drugs? You may want to do a drug to drug interactions screen.\nPlease, be certain you report your heart irregularity to your cardiologist.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10199-markdown","title":"Can you modify a CBDA:THCA tincture to make it CBD:TCH?","slug":"can-you-modify-a-cbda-thca-tincture-to-make-it-cbd-tch","content":"\"I have bottles of CBDA and THCA tincture.  They bother my throat.  I  also have other tinctures in various ratios of CBD to THC and they don't bother my throat so it may be the acid.  how can I mellow out the CBDA & THCA and change it to CBD & THC?\"\n_____________________\nGreat question!\nThe way most people decarboxylate, or going from the acidic form to the active form, is to apply heat. This can be achieved very simply by cooking your tincture on a low to medium heat for at least fifteen minutes but no more than forty-five minutes on a stovetop or in a slow cooker. You can also leave the tinctures exposed to open air and this will allow a slow oxidation process to begin. This will take a considerable amount more time but less risk of losing any cannabinoids from cooking them off.\nIt is also good to be aware that some companies use ethanol as an extraction ingredient and this can cause burning in the mouth and esophagus due to high alcohol percentages.\nI hope this helps!\n\naaronseda","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10198-markdown","title":"refrasing my question re CBDA & THCA to CBD & THC ","slug":"refrasing-my-question-re-cbda-thca-to-cbd-thc","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10090-markdown","title":"Why is it so difficult to find high CBD/low THC products for medical use? ","slug":"why-is-it-so-difficult-to-find-high-cbd-low-thc-products-for-medical-use","content":"\"Will this become more of a problem when rec occurs in NV? (It has in Oregon.)\"\n_____________________\nI suspect the reason high CBD with low THC is difficult to find because it is so popular right now, the products can sell out quickly but it could be that the growers and manufacturers in your area may not realize there is a desire for the products in your area. Did you ask for help in the Dispensary to find the products?\nThe CBD tinctures, since this is plant material without preservatives, the products are typically refrigerated so you must ask for help to find these products.\nThe high CBD low THC vape pens and refill cartridges are typically displayed in a display case.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nHigh CBD, low THC strains are difficult to grow and consume a lot of time and energy to grow indoors. Strains like AC/DC have a 15 week veg cycle. Since it's not as popular as high THC strains, it is not as cost effective and expensive for the patient.\n\nThis is a litmus test for true Non-profit Collectives. If your collective does not carry quality CBD products, then they may not have your medical needs in mind.  The Collectives I frequent, like Bat Buds Fresno and House of Wax, consider my medical needs  parimount.

If you just need to vape a specific type of medium for example dry herbs - you will need to make sure that the vaporizer you get is designed for dry herbs. Vaporizers can be medium specific, but you can also get 3 in 1 vaporizers or 'multi-purpose' vaporizers.\r\n\r\n\n\ncanada","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":120,"numPages":25,"currentPage":11,"id":5834,"name":"Thc","slug":"thc","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
