Whether you're concerned about drug testing or just curious about CBD's duration, here's what you need to know.
CBD Effects Duration
How long you feel CBD's effects depends on the method:
- Vaping: Onset 1-5 min, duration 1-3 hours
- Sublingual oil: Onset 15-30 min, duration 4-6 hours
- Edibles/capsules: Onset 30-90 min, duration 6-8+ hours
- Topicals: Localized, doesn't enter bloodstream significantly
How Long CBD Stays in Your Body
CBD's half-life (time for half to leave your system) is 18-32 hours. Most CBD is eliminated within 2-5 days, but heavy, chronic use may take longer (up to 2 weeks).
Factors Affecting Duration:
- Frequency of use – Regular users retain CBD longer
- Dosage – Higher doses take longer to clear
- Body composition – CBD is stored in fat cells
- Metabolism – Faster metabolism = faster clearance
- Method of consumption – Affects absorption and clearance
CBD and Drug Tests
Standard drug tests don't screen for CBD. However, some CBD products contain THC that could be detected. If drug tested:
- Use CBD isolate (zero THC)
- Avoid full spectrum products
- Allow 1-2 weeks without CBD before testing (to be extra safe)
