Examples of cannabis use routines by administration route

Subgroups n (%) Example quote
Non-inhalation 204 (18.8%)

“2 drops of 1000mg CBD oil, 2x day.”

“I take both THC & CBD tinctures in the AM, and usually a salve, then I put some Hash tincture in the water I have throughout the day. At night it can vary - sometimes just salve, sometimes nothing, sometimes an edible.”

Inhalation 393 (36.1%)

“I vape a sativa dominant hybrid in the morning and sometimes late afternoon. I smoke indica before bed.”

“I smoke high THC out of a pipe every hour or two throughout the day.”

Non-inhalation + inhalation 490 (45.1%)

“I medicate with 5mg 2:1 CBD:THC gummy. I immediately vape 3 drags from a 2:1 cartridge. I then micro-dose the same at 2.5 mg every 2 hours with 2 hits off the 2:1 vape pen. When I get home after work, I take a 2mg THC blueberry and water-vape a very small mt of an indica. Then, before bed I water vape slightly more indica and take a 5mg dose of a THC/indica gummy.”

“7 drops CBD twice daily, 2 drops 1:1 ratio before bed, vaporize higher THC as needed (esp. for neuropathic pain relief).”
