As someone who is very experienced using these oils, I would say the dosage is very personal and somewhat trial and error.

I have tried all three strains and find them all to be excellent. For the best effects, I take none during the week, then on a Friday evening we (wife and I) take 2-3 drops, usually sativa as it gives a lovely creative and chatty high. Saturday it’s 5 drops, indica tends to give a trippy high and more couchlock than creative. Then 3 drops on a Sunday of hybrid which is a nice blend of effects.

I can’t recommend these oils highly enough, they have enabled us to alter our mindset, release all sorts of bad shit from the past and think so so clearly, it’s truly life-changing and without doubt should be legalised to treat anxiety/depression/pain.

Naturally I can’t know exactly which one your friend should take, but for pain I would suggest indica could be a good starting place, try a few drops initially and wait 30 - 45 mins or so to see what happens. Keep us posted and good luck to your friend.

Very interesting to read your experience, because for me these oils start to kick in about 4 hours in, and reach their peak 6 hours in, with quite strong the effects lasting as long as 12 hours. So if I took sativa in the evening, it would kick in around midnight, which would not work well for sleeping, lol. My good dose is 5-7 drops. Interestingly, when I first tried these drops, I first took 3 drops, then 2 hours later I felt nothing so I took 5 more drops, another 2 hours pass and I got subtle effects so I thought, meh I need more, then I took 10 more drops...that means 18 drops in total..but about 4 hours later, when all that started to do it's thing, GEEZ it shook me so hard, and kept shaking me for a good 14 hours straight, not pleasant for the most part (as always with THC overdose). Writing all this so maybe someone else does not make the same mistake :D

I’ve just bought some indica drops for my mum who has mild Parkinson’s consisting of tremors in the hands and a bit in the mouth, which she is very conscious of. She has never taken anything like this so should be interesting and I will post on here how it helps.

Please let us know, I’m sure it could help others who may be suffering.
