Understanding FECO vs. RSO
Unlike RSO (Rick Simpson Oil), which is commonly extracted using isopropyl alcohol, FECO is made using food-grade ethanol. This results in a cleaner, safer extract with full-spectrum benefits.
Delivery Methods & Timing
FECO can be administered in several ways, each with a different onset time and duration:
- Sublingual (under the tongue): Effects in 15–30 minutes, lasting 4–6 hours
- Swallowed (capsule or mixed with food): Effects in 45–90 minutes, lasting 6–8 hours
- Topical (skin application): Localized relief; effects depend on condition
- Suppository: Often used in high-dose protocols; rapid systemic absorption
FECO Dosage Table
| Condition | Suggested Starting Dose | Frequency | Delivery Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pain | 1–2 mg THC | 2x daily | Sublingual or oral |
| Seizures | 0.5–1 mg THC + 2–5 mg CBD | 2–3x daily | Capsule or oral |
| Anxiety | 1 mg THC + 5 mg CBD | 1–2x daily | Sublingual |
| Sleep | 2–3 mg THC | 1x before bed | Oral |
| Inflammation | 5–10 mg CBD | 1–2x daily | Topical or oral |
What if I Take Too Much?
Stay calm. FECO cannot cause a fatal overdose. Common symptoms of overconsumption include drowsiness, anxiety, or nausea. Drink water, eat a light snack, and rest. Effects typically fade within hours.
Tips for Safe Use
- Start low and go slow. Increase only after evaluating effects for 3–5 days.
- Consult with your provider if on blood thinners, SSRIs, or other medications.
- Store safely—especially during summer. Avoid direct heat. Keep refrigerated or in a cool, dark place. Keep away from children and pets.
- Track effects in a journal. Download our FECO dosing journal here.
