Be a Responsible Patient: Get Informed About Cannabis

Get Informed

1. Choose the Right Strain

Not all strains are created equal! When authorized to use medicinal cannabis, the first step is to do research on what kind of cannabis will work best to alleviate your individual symptoms. Even recreational consumers benefit from exploring strain effects, as every variety provides a unique experience.

• Explore a variety of strains. If you are new to cannabis, it may be beneficial to try small amounts of different strains when you are first starting out. This will help you test different strains and different varieties (indicas, sativas, or hybrids) to find your perfect match.

2. Choose the Best Consumption Method

Tinctures, dabs, medibles, oils, lotions, vaporizers. Um, what? There are many different methods of using cannabis, but not all consumption devices or types may be ideal for you. Some forms of intake, such as smoking, can aggravate symptoms instead of delivering the medicine intended to help alleviate them.

Here are some tips on finding the best consumption method for you:

• Before you buy, discuss intake options with your doctor to see which form is suggested to you.

• Do some research on ways to use cannabis to familiarize yourself with different styles of cannabis use.
