Can You Build Tolerance to Medical Cannabis?

[alexford2421]

Yes, tolerance can develop with medical cannabis especially when THC is used regularly.

Over time, the body may become less sensitive to the same dose so the effects may feel weaker. This does not happen at the same speed for everyone and can depend on dose, frequency of use, product strength, and individual body response. If tolerance becomes a concern a healthcare professional may suggest adjusting the dose, changing the product, or taking a short break rather than simply using more.

Please, make more substantial posts. This doesn't deserve its own thread or even to be mentioned at all. It would if it went into some detail about tolerance or provided something beyond an extremely basic fact about cannabis (medical or otherwise).

A post stating basic facts may still be worth it if it's a substantial piece introducing some topic to beginners. This is not the case here. See a good example here: All About Aya <3

Please, refrain from continuing this posting pattern. If you do want to keep posting about weed basics, it needs to be something more comprehensive and useful than "weed causes tolerance".

That’s a fair point. My intention was to share short and easy-to-read information, but I understand that several separate FAQ-style threads may not be very useful for this community.

A single, more detailed resource would make more sense than spreading the information across multiple threads. I’ll also check with the moderators before posting anything further. Thank you for the honest feedback.

I talked to him about promotion and the need for anonymity, and so far he did comply with that.

There's a chance I didn't explain myself properly before about these kind of posts not being welcome. Now I think I've been quite explicit so the next step if this pattern continues will be a temporary ban.

@redbird thanks for offering your perspective as it's always helpful to know how others perceive these issues. Balancing between heavy handedness and excessive leniency is not always easy.

I've been fascinated for years how lenient mods here are (except Bill, but that was an extreme on the other side of the spectrum)

"Lenient"????? That's it.

@doubledog has been banned for disrespecting the mods.

And here I was, limbering up to type "of course it f'in does, are you stupid?"

Imagine my disappointment...

Just a thought about my experience of "medical cannabis professionals" here in the UK.

I find that the patient knows vastly more than the prescribing Doctor / Professional, I could literally run rings around them, its me telling them what works.
My prescription is basically a Tick-Box-Exercise asking, "how is it going?" and me saying, "All good thanks".

I find the UK MC industry literally sells on Strength, the only advertising I see from my prescriber is all about 25+% THC Bud, it feels more like any online shopping experience with Offer prices and Star products.

I'm not knocking my ability to get the medicine that works for me Legally rather than having to do a sneaky homegrow, I like being Legal.
Just as soon as someone legalises Homegrow I'll be out of their system!

 

[TransistorBass]

As an example, I'm currently getting good things from a T7:C7 Bud, though ideally 10% THC on top of the 7% CBD would be about perfect, I've really no need for 30% THC

 

[ommani]

I’ve recently gotten into the habit of taking a smoked puff of mapacho with every hit or two of vaporized weed, which seems to work well for me.

 

[Jamie01]

Do a ratio of like 3/1 CBD to THC. CBD helps to mitigate tolerance to THC somewhat.

If you juggle them it's pretty intense.

Unless you are a juggalo

Yep! Vape some pure CBD bud followed by the same amount THC bud, and repeat as necessary.

Woop woop!
