Can I Use Cannabis Tincture for My Nebulizer?
Thank you for your thoughtful question and for being a listener of the podcast—your curiosity and hands-on approach to cannabis use are so inspiring! Exploring nebulization is an exciting frontier in cannabis medicine, but it comes with important safety considerations.
Nebulizers are designed for water-based solutions, not oil-based tinctures, as inhaling oils can pose risks like lipoid pneumonia. While diluting tinctures with Everclear might sound creative, it introduces challenges like ensuring full alcohol evaporation before use. For safe nebulization, water-soluble cannabis formulations, though rare, are the best option.
Think of it like making tea versus frying food—your lungs are the teapot, designed for steam, not oil. Check out my Substack for more details on nebulization, and thank you for pushing cannabis medicine forward with your curiosity!
