No, THCV Won’t Take Your High Away.
There are some troubling posts out there on the internet boasting about a miracle product that “takes away” your high. The product contains THCV, and the makers of this product are claiming this cannabinoid is what makes the product “undo” your high. Well, we have some bad news:
There is no way to make your high go away. At least, there is no real miracle product to help you out.
Once THC has entered your bloodstream, there is no way of reversing its effects other than to wait it out. But the good news is; it won’t last forever.
THCV does not make you less high, but it can mitigate some other effects of THC, making your high more pleasant to experience.
According to one study, “When a low dose of oral THCV was administered before the THC intravenous dose, THCV blunted the well-known effects of THC including psychotic and paranoia effects, and impaired short-term memory” (Abioye et. al.). This means THCV can help with THC-induced anxiety, which is good news for everyone.
THCV also acts as a stimulant, providing users with energy and focus. It can take away brain fog and drowsiness brought on by THC.
Essentially, if you take THCV to help with your THC high, it’s the same idea as drinking coffee to make you sober after drinking too much alcohol. You’ll still be high. It could just be more pleasant.
When paired together (like in our products), THCV gives your classic THC high a boost, with more energy and less brain fog and anxiety. It provides a euphoric sensation when taken in higher doses, and gives us the same feel-good sensation we get from other natural-energy-boosters like caffeine.
Everyone knows the panic-inducing feeling of the “what if I’m high forever?” thought. Maybe you took too much of an edible or puffed a little too long on that joint. Whatever the reason, being too high isn’t any fun. We just have to give it time.

OFFICIAL DISCLAIMER:
We do not recommend taking THCV to combat any existing high you may feel from THC.
