What To Do When You've Ingested Too Much Cannabis


Takeaway: The effects of edibles often takes longer to realize than with other methods of cannabis consumption. As such, it is easy to consume too much since you may think that what you are consuming isn’t working.

You find yourself in a panic. You realize too late that you have ingested too much cannabis. Maybe you are new to edibles or there was no discernible dosage information on the packaging, if at all.

The effects of edibles often takes longer to realize than with other methods of cannabis consumption. As such, it is easy to consume too much since you may think that what you are consuming isn’t working.


However you find yourself in this predicament, there are two things to try and remember if at all possible: it will pass and leave you unharmed, and there is nothing that can be done to make you “un-high”.

Making it into a food form is a waste of time. Just get it into the blood stream.

Amateurs.

Is that what you put between cheek and gum? Sorry if that's a stupid question. I buy the oil syringes and eat that but I'll try
your method.

Edibles can sneak up on you.
When I was in college I ate some cookies that my roommate made with killer shit from abroad and none of us could function the next day. It was similar to dosing on acid. I haven't had any that good since though.

is to not eat more edible cannabis. You could try smoking a little bit. It will give you the immediate high that you are looking for and won't add too much to the edible that you just ate. It will wear off about the same time you are starting to feel the effect of the edible.

and she got over medicated. I didn’t know what had happened so I took her to the vet. He figured it out and told me she’d be fine. Suggested I take her home and give as much pizza as she wanted.

So eat pizza.
