Just wondering about this.\"\n_____________________\nCannabis is a safe and effective treatment for migraines headaches and can also play a role in preventing them. I have spoken with countless migraine sufferers who attest to the benefits of cannabis in treating the pain, nausea and visual disturbances they suffer. Many theories attempt to explain the cause of migraines and generally blood vessels and neuronal structures are thought to play a key role. Cannabis acts to relax blood vesssels and overexcitation. Cannabis is also helpful in treating the side effects of many migraine medications. CBD is especially helpful as it can be used during the daytime without unwanted psychoactive effects.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11004-markdown","title":"Anyone have a good experience with any of the on-line mail order CBD sites?

I usually recommend that new cannabis users who want to avoid mental disruption start with a 1:1 THC to CBD ratio. \n\nThe closer the CBD concentration is to THC the less likely you will experience the psychoactive effects. Once you have a sense of how the balanced products affect you, then you can venture up or down the ratio scale to manage symptoms and avoid psychoactive disruption. \n\nIf you fine that 1:1 is still to stimulating, you may want to try 2:1 or 4:1 CBD to THC.\n\ndrgerhart","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10973-markdown","title":"Can you use CBD oil while on prescription meds for migraines?","slug":"can-you-use-cbd-oil-while-on-prescription-meds-for-migraines","content":"\n_____________________\nYes CBD oil and cannabis in general does not cause adverse drug reactions when taken along with other medications.

I have had chronic migraines for over 30 yrs. And tried everything. My last resort is botox for migraines and I'm scared to do that because of side effects. So will cbd oil  help me?\"\n_____________________\nThere are many different types and brands of CBD oil to pick from, and your final choice will be determined by your personal needs and how you plan to utilize CBD.\n\nSome of the questions you’ll want to ask yourself are:\n\nHow many milligrams of CBD oil will I need?\nDo I want something flavored or unflavored?\nWill I be using CBD oil at home, on the go, or both?\nWhat’s my main consideration – strength or price?\n\nAt the right dosage, CBD has been shown to significantly help with anxiety, pain, and inflammation (and potentially many other problems as well). An appropriately high dosage of CBD will give you all the desired effects you need, and there is really no risk of overdose as CBD is harmless even in high concentrations. However, most people will feel little effect if they take too low a dosage, effectively wasting CBD’s powerful beneficial properties.\n\nWith the above in mind, the importance of correct CBD dosage becomes obvious. People with different requirements and different metabolisms will need accordingly different CBD dosages to experience CBD’s positive effects, and dosages can vary dramatically because there is no one-size-fits-all “typical CBD dosage.” While there is no such thing as “too much CBD,” you can in fact take too little to feel a difference.\n\nDosage can range anywhere from 2mg to 3mg, up to 100mg or even 200mg on the super-high end. (Remember, you cannot overdose and there are no reported side effects from taking high concentrations of CBD.) Let’s see how much CBD the most popular CBD oil products contain and how you can adjust your dosage (or not) with them.\n\nMost people only need about 2mg to 3mg per day to start feeling a difference. Yet people with stronger needs may need to start at 2mg to 3mg and work their way up until they find the right dose for their body.\n\ndrpinto","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10941-markdown","title":"The cbd spray that is sold online without a card, is that potent? ","slug":"the-cbd-spray-that-is-sold-online-without-a-card-is-that-potent","content":"\n_____________________\nCBD products that are available without a medical marijuana recommendation are typically derived from hemp. Hemp and cannabis come from the same plant genetics, so it follows that there should be no difference in CBD derived from hemp as CBD derived from cannabis. Hemp typically contains less than 1% THC, and CBD is not psychoactive, so there are no intoxicating effects from products derived from hemp. CBD acts on the same endocannabinoid receptors as THC, found throughout the body, and has been found to be effective in the treatment of pain, inflammation, migraine headaches, and for the prevention of seizures.\n\ndredmunds","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10937-markdown","title":"Can my son with severe Cerebral Palsy benefit from CBD oil and what would be the dosage?","slug":"can-my-son-with-severe-cerebral-palsy-benefit-from-cbd-oil-and-what-would-be-the-dosage","content":"\n_____________________\nThere are anecdotal reports that CBD may be helpful in treating cerebral palsy. Benefit may be due to the anti-spasmodic properties of cannabis, which may help reduce dystonia. In fact, the U.S. NIH is currently enrolling pediatric patients with cerebral palsy and genetic neurodegenerative diseases to determine if patients will have an improvement in motor and non-motor functioning and quality of life (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02470325). There will be two treatment arms, one in which patients receive a cannabis oil with a THC:CBD ratio of 1:6 and another with 1:20.\n\ndredmunds","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10920-markdown","title":"What would be the most appropriate %thc and %cbd for HER2+ carcinoma (breast) if using the 60g protocol? ","slug":"what-would-be-the-most-appropriate-thc-and-cbd-for-her2-carcinoma-breast-if-using-the-60g-protocol","content":"\"Mom is currently being treated with docetaxel-herception-perjeta (2nd infusion this week), but would really like to be able to stop the chemo. Because HER2+ is aggressive, she was afraid that without the chemo she wouldn't have had time for the MMJ to work. She has been working on building her tolerance to get to 1g/day with some edibles, but I'm not sure the exact %. They were home-made using a combination of CO2 extracts: 20g CannaTsu + 8g another hybrid (from what I was told %THC similar to RSO). She's able to take about 1/3g in the evenings, but doesn't like \"being stoned\" so she is also using a dropper of CBD ONE (Venice Cookie Co) to \"offset the high\". The amount she takes during the day varies depending on what she has scheduled. She's about ready to place another order so I need to know what to get her (strains, cannabinoid profile... any info I can get).\n\nWhich strains (w/ THC:CBD %) are most suited in her case? \n\nWhat is a good dose of THC/CBD in mg for her using the 60g protocol?\n\nSativa, Indica, hybrids or should she have some each??\n\nWhat the THC:CBD % of oils that are marketed as RSO?\n\nThank you for your time!\n\n\"\n_____________________\nBoth THC and CBD have shown promise in eliminating cancerous cells, preventing metastasis, preventing angiongenesis (formation of new blodd vessels in malignant growths) and in supporting the body and mind while undergoing conventional cancer treatment. Many different opinions exist as to the optimal percentage of CBD and THC in the oil. My reccomendation would be to utilize cannabis that has a balance of THC and CBD and that is not too psychoactive or sedating. The exact percentages have yet to be determined and what may be more important is to use oil that is free of solvent and other extranious chemicals. If too much psychoactivity exsists with a certain oil, it would be wise to utilize an oil with less THC.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10906-markdown","title":"How much CBD is appropriate per day to combat inflammation?","slug":"how-much-cbd-is-appropriate-per-day-to-combat-inflammation","content":"\"I take CBD dominant tinctures on a daily basis and they seem to help with migraines and fibromyalgia. I am wondering what people think about the appropriate daily dosage. What is enough to have an effect when taken daily? As CBD tinctures tend to be pricey I take between 5mg-10mg daily. Is that enough to truly have an effect on body inflammation?\"\n_____________________\nThis is a billion dollar question and has yet to be answered. CBD or Cannabidiol is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that shows potent anti-inflammatory effects, increasing our own natural cannabinoid levels by preventing their breakdown. CBD can be found in the stems, leaves, flowers and seeds of cannabis plants, based on their genetics and growing conditions. If the patient is healthy and relatively free of disease, I would reccomend around 5-10 milligrams of CBD per day. If a patient is actively combating an inflammatory condition such as arthritis, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, or other ailments, I would reccomend higher doses. I would start low and slowly increase the dose.\n\nandrewvanmd\n_____________________\nI don't get a lot of migraines, and I know it might depend on the type of migraines you get, but I I really like CBDa for migraines. It's the acid form of CBD (what's on the plant when it's first picked -- many people are juicing cannabis for these acid cannabinoids). I've had a couple of migraines in the last few months and I did about 1/2 dropper of tincture under my tongue, held it there for a minute or so, then swallowed. In about a half an hour, I felt the pain lift to a manageable level. After about an hour, I took another 1/2 dropper and same thing -- I felt the pain lift and was gone altogether. You may also want to increase cannabinoid intake daily, as the body loves microdosed cannabinoids, and it could help you stave off migraines. You might also need to try a few cannabinoids and ratios to find what's best for you.\n\njaene","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_10903-markdown","title":"Is CBD effective in the Anti-Inflammatory drink, or can it be used alone for shoulder pain?","slug":"is-cbd-effective-in-the-anti-inflammatory-drink-or-can-it-be-used-alone-for-shoulder-pain","content":"\n_____________________\nI'm not sure I understand the question, but I believe you are referring to the anti-inflammatory properties of a CBD beverage? I would reccomend CBD tincture. Oral/mucous membrane absorption is superior to edible/digestive system, more of the active cannabinoids will be absorbed and will provide a faster onset as well.

I wanted to see if a topical cannibis product would help reduce this tumor?\"\n_____________________\nYes topical cannabis preparations have been shown to be effective in treating neoplasms of the skin, particulary squamous cell carcinoma. Rick simpson oil (hash oil, hemp oil, FECO) should be applied directly to the neoplasm and covered with a bandage, and the oil and bandage re-applied every 3-5 days. It is alwways good to visit a dermatologist, family physician or internist for diagnosis and pathological study of the cells involved. Skin cancer can progress rapidly and great care should be taken in treating it.\n\nandrewvanmd","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":720,"numPages":66,"currentPage":61,"id":5084,"name":"CBD","slug":"cbd","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
