Tolerance levels will also fluctuate depending on how much cannabis a person has smoked or ingested within a period. Again, metabolism may also play a role, and a person with a very fast metabolism may not feel the effects for as long as someone with a slower metabolism. In general, it is likely that the high from an edible will last for a few hours.
The authors of a review article note that the effects from edibles last about 6—8 hours. However, it is not uncommon for the high to last up to 8—12 hours if the person is sensitive but only about 4 hours if the person has a higher tolerance. It is difficult to pin down the dosage of edibles, as numerous manufacturers make a different range of products. Additionally, the potency of the edibles will vary not only on the type of strain and THC content but also on factors such as cooking temperature and time.
Edibles can come in doses as low 0. However, many consider 2. The average edible will contain 10—15 mg of THC. These doses are generally effective for a person who is used to cannabis and wants to feel the effects of the edible for a few hours. A very high dose begins at about 20 mg of THC. Doses this high are generally not a good idea, as they may increase the risk of some unwanted effects from taking in too much THC at once.
However, some heavy smokers or people who are used to taking very high amounts of THC may use a very high dose edible to experience stronger or longer lasting effects. A review article notes that the THC effects of edibles can appear in some individuals at doses as low as 2. This range is very wide, reinforcing the idea that individuals should start with a low dose.
Edibles containing THC cause a similar high and feelings of relaxation and euphoria as smoking the compound. The high will vary based on the type of cannabinoids in the edible and the overall potency. Some people choose edibles rather than smoking to avoid harm to their lungs, whereas others actually prefer the high that an edible brings.

It is possible to ingest too much THC, though, which can cause some uncomfortable side effects. Research in the International Journal of Drug Policy notes that this THC overconsumption is more likely with edibles, as, unlike with smoking, the body does not give the person any warning signs.
By the time any signs of overdose are apparent, it is too late, and the body is already processing the edible. Accidental consumption of THC by children or those who have no prior history of using THC products may be more likely to cause severe reactions. The National Institute on Drug Abuse note that edible use has caused an increase in emergency room visits.
The reason may be that people who are inexperienced with edibles take too much, causing concerning symptoms. Another risk that people should be aware of is an allergic reaction to other ingredients in the edible. Cannabinoids need to bind to fat for the body to process them. Many manufacturers use products such as milk and butter in their edibles to help this process.
Someone who has lactose intolerance may, therefore, have a reaction to an edible. Anyone with a severe nut or wheat allergy should contact the manufacturer to ask about any possible contamination before trying the product. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health note that the FDA have not approved cannabis for any medical use but have approved pure isolates of cannabinoids for limited specific uses. The body of research into cannabinoids is growing as cannabis becomes decriminalized in many parts of the world.
Anecdotally, people find that cannabinoids help treat a range of conditions, including:. Researchers must continue to study the medical effects of marijuana to prove its safety and effectiveness as a treatment.
