A THC tincture is a concentrated cannabis extract that is taken orally, using a dropper. It is made by dissolving cannabis in alcohol or another solvent, creating a potent liquid that can be easily measured and consumed.

THC tinctures are typically used by placing a few drops under the tongue (sublingually) for rapid absorption into the bloodstream. You can also add it to food or drinks, though this will delay the onset of effects as it needs to be digested.

When taken sublingually, effects can begin within 15 to 30 minutes. If added to food or drinks, it might take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours to feel the effects, depending on individual metabolism and the contents of the stomach.

The effects of THC tinctures can last for several hours, varying by dose and individual. Sublingual administration tends to have a shorter duration than ingestion.

Store your tincture in a cool, dark place to prolong its shelf life. Avoid direct sunlight and heat.

Travel regulations vary by location. It is important to check the laws regarding THC products in both your departure and arrival destinations before traveling with a THC tincture.

Start with a low dose, especially if you are new to THC or tinctures. You can gradually increase the dose until you find the amount that works best for you. It's advisable to wait at least two hours before taking more, especially with ingestible products.

Tinctures offer precise dosing, fast onset when used sublingually, and a smokeless option for consuming THC. They are also discreet and easy to use.

Side effects can include dry mouth, red eyes, increased heart rate, coordination issues, and slower reaction times. The intensity ofside effects can depend on the dose and individual sensitivity to THC.

THC can interact with other medications. Consult with a healthcare provider before combining THC with other medications.
