Recommended Dosage

How much CBD oil should I take? Or how many drops of CBD oil do I have to use?

A crucial question that often is asked is how much CBD oil should be used? Although a user manual is attached with the medically manufactured CBD oil, yet it is essential to know the right amount of oil for you. CBD oil reacts differently in every person; therefore, understanding your physiological system and listening to your body needs should be taken into consideration while starting a CBD oil regime.

Standard dosing recommendation for CBD oil

The dosing recommendation of CBD oil differs according to the brand, making it highly confusing for its users. However, through these standard recommendations, you would be able to determine whatever amount your body needs without stressing.

  • It is essential to start by taking 1 – 2 drops of CBD oil on the first day.
  • Increase the amount of 2 drops per day during the first 3-4 weeks.
  • In the initial weeks, thoroughly notice the change in symptoms.
  • If you do not experience the reduction of the symptoms after 3-4 weeks, increase the number of drops gradually until you notice the desired results.
  • Do not take drops all at once. This might produce adverse effects in your body.
  • It is essential to spread the usage evenly over the entire day, such as taking the appropriate dosage three times a day.

The major point about CBD oil is that its concentration varies at preparations. It can range from 1 milligram to hundreds of milligrams per dose. Hence, carefully monitoring the dose according to your disease is not only firmly advised but essential for you as well.
