How Much CBD Oil Should I Take?

Figuring out the right CBD oil dosage can be a bit of trial and error, since it varies from person to person. While each product has its own guide, the key is listening to your body and adjusting based on how you feel.

Here’s a general guide to get you started:

  1. Start small – Begin with 1–2 drops on your first day.
  2. Gradually increase – Add 2 more drops each day for the first 3–4 weeks.
  3. Pay attention – Keep an eye on any changes in how you’re feeling during this time.
  4. Adjust if needed – If you don’t feel any relief after 3–4 weeks, slowly increase the dosage until you find what works for you.
  5. Spread it out – Instead of taking all the drops at once, try spacing them throughout the day (e.g., three times a day).

Important Notes:

  • CBD oil concentrations can vary, so make sure you’re adjusting based on your product’s potency and your needs.
  • Your ideal dosage also depends on things like body weight and the severity of your condition. Use the chart below to figure out a good starting point.
