How to take Medicine

There are different methods to deliver your medical marijuana treatment. There are tincture forms and spray forms, both applications serving a specific purpose. Either MJ Doc TX specialists or your physician can help you determine which method of delivery is best for you.

Tinctures

Tinctures are cannabis extracts, typically produced with alcohol or glycerin. They are created to deliver the exact dosage very quickly and efficiently. It is recommended to take the prescribed dosage by applying the dropper under the tongue or in the cheek pouch. Allow the medicine to soak for 1-2 minutes before swallowing.

Oral Mouth Spray

The oral mouth sprays allow controlling very low dose of medicines. It is a preferred method to administer to younger children. These sublingual products usually come in a small bottle. Just squirt or spray it under your tongue and let it absorb through the thin tissue of the mouth.

Lozenges

Lozenges are solid dosage forms that are intended to be dissolved or disintegrated slowly in the mouth. They offer a reduced oil intake while resolving dexterity challenges caused by a traditional dropper for patients suffering from movement disorders. They need to be slowly dissolved without chewing, crushing, or swallowing.
