How Do Transdermal Cannabis Patches Work?
Here is a quick excerpt from Hightimes.com
Cannabis transdermal patches are self-adhesive doses of medical marijuana. These patches function like birth control and nicotine patches. As in, they release controlled and accurate doses into the bloodstream over time. Flesh-colored and small, these squares can adhere anywhere with veins, offering a more discrete way to use cannabis.

Due to their high bioavailability, or rate of absorption into the bloodstream, they are a better delivery method of the maximum cannabinoids and whole plant terpenes to the body.
The cannabis transdermal patch patent has existed since 2001. But today the diversity of transdermal products has expanded, giving the wearer ultimate control of their high.
It’s important to consider the type of cannabinoid and duration of the high when choosing the best patch. One with the cannabinoid CBD may help someone struggling with seizures. Another person with appetite loss may prefer a THC patch.
Other single-cannabinoid patch choices are THCA or CBN. Plus many companies make split-ratio options of CBD and THC. Some patches last up to 8 hours while others continue for a blissful 96 hours.
