Titration and dosing

THESE TITRATION MODELS SERVE AS AN EXAMPLE AND MUST BE ADAPTED TO EACH PATIENT

Days	Morning dose (mL of oral solution)	Evening dose (mL of oral solution)	Total daily dose (mL of oral solution)	THC total daily dose (mg)
1–2	0	0.125	0.125	2.5
3-4	0.125	0.125	0.250	5
5-6	0.250	0.250	0.500	10
7-8	0.250	0.500	0.750	15
9-10	0.375	0.375	0.750	15
11-12	0.375	0.375	0.750	15

Titration scheme and practical dosing recommendations:

The patient should take the minimum dose that provides effective symptom relief with tolerable side effects.
The titration should be conservative, done with increments of 2.5 mg THC every 2 days (or with increments of 1.25 mg THC for fragile patients).

The dosage protocol can be adjusted according to the patient’s profile. Increase dose as necessary and as tolerated, up to 15 mg of THC. Daily THC doses exceeding 20–30 mg may elevate the risk of adverse events or lead to the development of tolerance without improving efficacy. Maximum recommended daily THC dose: 40 mg.

*Ideally, the administration should start with an evening dose to limit adverse events and encourage the development of tolerance.
