About cannabis topicals

Topicals are cannabis-infused balms, lotions, salves and roll-ons that you apply to the skin. People reach for them for targeted, local relief after a workout or at the end of a long day.

Standard topicals are non-intoxicating: the cannabinoids act where you apply them and do not reach the bloodstream in a meaningful amount. Transdermal patches are different and are designed to pass through the skin, so they can produce effects.

Will a THC topical get me high?

Lotions, balms and salves will not. They stay in the skin. Transdermal patches can, because they are designed to reach the bloodstream.

How do I use a cannabis topical?

Clean the area, rub in a small amount and reapply as needed. Try a small patch of skin first if you are sensitive to fragrances or oils.

Can a topical show up on a drug test?

Non-transdermal topicals are unlikely to, but no product can guarantee a clean result. If you are tested, talk to your employer or doctor first.
