Which Medical Marijuana is best to go to sleep and stay asleep

Posted by HomeAgainLA @llynch17056, Jan 6 9:30am

After a nasty case of Covid in March 2020 I developed sleeping issues. I do all the right things (diet, exercise, turn off tv and phone, room temp, etc), but still have inconsistent sleep. I finally tried 1/2 5mg Ambien last night, fell asleep at 9:30 pm, but awake at midnight. At 2:00 am took the other half and finally slept a few more hours. I have a prescription for Medical Marijuana, but it hasn’t helped either. I tried the ones recommended for sleep that have THC and CBN, as well as various mg levels of pure THC.

Any suggestions on how better to use THC or even something else? My doctor does not seem to be tuned into this problem.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Sleep Health Support Group.

I use indica gummies, 10 mg THC. I buy from Rise dispensary . Indica strains work best for sleep for me. I do wake up at night but am able to go back to sleep without anxiety. I took Ambien for many years but am no longer taking. Good luck, sleep is so important. My physician is on board with this and feels medical marijuana is one of the more benign medications.

Great info. Thank you. Lately I’ve been doing 10mg pure THC indica gummy. I think I’m doing better. Is it possible that it will get even better with time?

I've posted on this site before that I'm in favor of doxylamine succinate (25 mg before bedtime), an antihistamine that Costco carries under the brand "Sleep Aid" (it's pretty inexpensive too). It is also sold at drug stores under Unisom's trade name (more expensive), but you must read the labels carefully to see that you are not getting diphenhydramine which is the same as Benadryl. It must be doxylamine succinate). You may wake up groggy if you don't start with a half tablet ad work up to a full tablet. I've been on it for years, it's great. That, and I take 5 mg of melatonin before bedtime, also available at Costco.

I don't know what state you are in and if it is legal there. I am in California and there are many choices. I only use edibles occassionally. However, following are a few products which are recommended according to AI. (a friend of mine makes their own and I get mine for free).

Stiiizy's CBN Gummies, Papa & Barkley's Sleep Releaf Gummies, Koi CBD's Nighttime Rest Gummies, Wana Optimal Gummies, and Camino's CBN Sleep Gummies by Kiva are among the top recommendations. These gummies contain a combination of cannabinoids such as THC, CBD, and CBN, as well as terpenes and melatonin, which are known for their sleep-inducing properties

I'd add Mood's sleep gummies. Just started using them. I am finding that about 1/4 gummies and in 5 min I drift off into a deep sleep

Moods gummies don't contain medical marijuana. Their website says they contain B6, Passionflower extract and 2mg of melatonin.
