Cannabis for Seniors

Simple, Safe, and Not Confusing

A lot of older adults are curious about medical cannabis but don't want to feel "high," don't want to smoke, and definitely don't want tech headaches. That's where a medical program and support team can make things easier.

Common senior goals

  • Sleep support
  • Pain relief
  • Appetite support
  • Anxiety relief
  • Improving day-to-day comfort

The senior-friendly approach

Start low and go slow — this is extra important for older adults.
Choose predictable formats. Avoid smoke/combustion. Keep dosing simple and consistent.

⚠ Safety Notes — Very Important

  • Fall risk: dizziness is real if you overdo it
  • Interaction caution: if you take multiple meds, talk to your provider
  • No driving while impaired

I want relief without feeling "high"

This is the #1 concern we hear from older patients. Here's what you should know:

You have options. Not every product gets you "high."

• CBD-dominant products provide relief with minimal-to-no impairment for many people.

• Balanced ratios (equal THC and CBD) are often described as providing functional relief without heavy effects.

• Topicals (creams, balms) typically don't cause any "high" feeling at all.

• Low-dose approaches let you find the minimum effective amount — many seniors do great on very small amounts.
