What does potency mean?
Last Updated:
Potency refers to the strength or concentration of cannabinoids, such as THC or CBD, in a cannabis product. It indicates how much of these active compounds are present and helps patients understand the potential strength of the effects.
For inhalation products, potency is usually shown on the label as a percentage. For products taken orally, potency is listed in milligrams (mg) of THC, showing how much THC is in each dose.
