There is a slight increase in dose proportionality in terms of peak and area-under-the-curve levels of THC with increasing oral doses over a range of 2.5 to 10 mg. [21] A high-fat meal delays time to peak concentrations of oral THC by 4 hours on average and increases area-under-the-curve exposure by 2.9-fold, but peak concentrations are not ...
[5] [6] Nabiximols is a combination drug standardized in composition, formulation, and dose. Its principal active components are the cannabinoids: tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). Each spray delivers a dose of 2.7 mg THC and 2.5 mg CBD. In 2003, GW Pharmaceuticals partnered with Bayer to market the drug under the brand name ...
Importantly, 11-OH-THC, the active metabolite generated via first-pass-metabolism of THC, demonstrates different binding profile at TRP channels [13] Potential relevance to sleep induction (e.g., increased adenosine levels [16]) and increased quality of sleep [13] Dose-dependent anxiolytic effects, [13] with anxiogenic effects at high doses
Another problem, despite the dosage written on a brand’s packaging, is that the actual amount of THC varies from product to product. This makes it even harder to pin down how much is too much.
In dogs, the minimum lethal dose of THC is over 3000 mg/kg. [20] According to The Merck Index, [21] the LD 50 of THC (the dose which causes the death of 50% of individuals) is 1270 mg/kg for male rats and 730 mg/kg for female rats from oral consumption in sesame oil, and 42 mg/kg for rats from inhalation.

Cannabis material can be leached in high-proof spirits (often grain alcohol) to create a "Green Dragon". Cannabis can also be consumed as a cannabis tea and many other beverages. Although THC is lipophilic and only slightly water soluble (with a solubility of 2.8 mg per liter), [13] enough THC can be dissolved to make a mildly psychoactive tea ...
CBD shares a precursor with THC and is the main cannabinoid in CBD-dominant Cannabis strains. CBD has been shown to play a role in preventing the short-term memory loss associated with THC. [29] There is tentative evidence that CBD has an anti-psychotic effect, but research in this area is limited. [30] [24]
