The Best Advice You Can Hear About Trying Medical Marijuana

Talk to your doctor.
 

This is perhaps the most important thing you can do before trying medical marijuana. Your doctor will be able to help you determine if medical marijuana is the right treatment for your condition and if so, your doctor will be able to provide guidance on dosage and how to use it. Don't be afraid to ask questions, your health depends on it.
 

Start low and go slow.
 

Don't use more than the recommended dosage. If you don't feel anything after an hour, take less next time instead of taking more. Adjust your dose until it's right for you. It’s better to be too low than too high with marijuana so start small and go slow. Be consistent in how often you ingest or smoke medical cannabis. You should treat this like any other medicine by only using it regularly if needed rather than waiting for symptoms to appear before trying again. Don’t mix this with alcohol or prescription medication without first speaking with your doctor about possible interactions between substances; even over-the-counter medications interact poorly with marijuana making side effects worse.
 

Learn what works best for you.
 

Everyone is different so just because your friend had good results from smoking a joint doesn't mean that the same dosage will have the same effect on you or vice versa. There are many ways to ingest medical marijuana, each method has its pros and cons when compared with others such as vaping, eating edibles, smoking flower, and many more.
 

Be patient.
 

While it may be tempting to immediately try using medical marijuana, take the time you need for your body to adjust. Be patient while trying out medical marijuana. It might be tempting right away but allow yourself some time before expecting that it'll work at all or just how much you wanted.
 

Talk to other users.
 

One of the best pieces of advice you can hear about trying medical marijuana is to talk to other users. This will give you a better understanding of how the drug works and what kind of results you can expect. There are many online forums and groups where you can find information from other people who are using medical marijuana. Be sure to do your research before trying any new treatment, including medical marijuana. There is a lot of good information out there, but it's important to be critical and verify the sources.
 

Be careful with edibles.
 

Even though they are one of the most popular ways to ingest medical cannabis, edible products can be tricky business because it is hard to know how much THC or CBD has been added in each serving making dosage very difficult when eating an entire pot brownie which could contain far more THC than recommended for a single person while having no idea that there was enough in there to get high at all until its too late. It’s important not only to know what kind of product you're using but also to understand the effects and potential side-effects associated with taking this specific product as well as any interactions between medications if you are on prescription medication along with having a full understanding of the product label.
 

Keep your communication open.
 

One of the biggest mistakes that people make when trying medical marijuana is to keep their use a secret, especially if they live in areas where it's illegal or frowned upon for any reason. Keeping your use hidden could lead to abuse and cause you more harm than good so always be sure to talk with whomever you trust about how much cannabis you're using and why, this will help ensure safety while preventing addiction.
