How can the unwanted effects of the Cannabis be reduced?

One of the first principles of safely treating with Cannabis is – ‘Start low and go slow’. In order to reduce side effects, one need to start the treatment with a low dosage and advance according to the patient’s needs and reactions. (Gradual titration). Those who seek to reduce the unwanted effects of the Cannabis, such as the “high” feeling, anxiety, dryness of the mouth and others, can try using products with a higher content of CBD, since a high THC content is what causes most of the side effects. Another option is to reduce the dosages of the doses taken until readjustment and reduction of side effects, and in this case it is recommended to consult the treating physician before changing the dosage. In addition, the consumption of certain foods is reported to reduce the unwanted effects such as eating chocolate, sucking on a wedge of lemon, drinking citrus juice and eating certain salty foods.
