CBD overdose is not life-threatening. There are no confirmed fatal overdoses from CBD in the medical literature. Very high doses (well above typical use) may cause: - Excessive drowsiness and sedation - Diarrhea and GI distress - Nausea - Dry mouth - Light-headedness These symptoms are self-limiting and resolve as CBD is metabolized (half-life of 18-32 hours orally). No specific emergency treatment is typically needed. Seek medical attention if: - Severe drowsiness occurs in combination with other sedating medications (potential compounded CNS depression) - Allergic reaction symptoms appear (rare but possible with carrier oils or other product ingredients) - You are on medications known to interact with CBD (CYP3A4/CYP2C19 substrates) and experience unusual symptoms - Symptoms are more severe than expected, which may indicate the product contains undisclosed substances
