Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) Protocol

Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) Protocol Guide

Understanding the Rick Simpson Oil Protocol

The Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) Protocol is a structured 90-day cannabis treatment regimen designed to help individuals safely and effectively consume 60 grams of RSO. This method was developed by Rick Simpson himself after his successful use of cannabis oil to treat skin cancer in the early 2000s.

The protocol focuses on gradual dosage increase, allowing your body to build tolerance to the oil’s potent cannabinoids—particularly THC—while maximizing the therapeutic potential of the extract.

The Goal of the RSO Protocol

The objective is simple yet powerful:
Ingest 60 grams of Rick Simpson Oil over 90 days.

This approach provides a sustained introduction of cannabinoids into your system, allowing your body to adapt naturally and harness the oil’s healing benefits.

RSO Dosage Guidelines

1. Starting Dose (Days 1–4)

Begin with a tiny drop about the size of a grain of rice, taken three times per day—morning, afternoon, and before bedtime.
Wait 30–60 minutes after each dose to evaluate how your body feels before increasing your intake.

Most people experience mild drowsiness or euphoria at first; this is completely normal.

2. Gradual Increase (Day 4–30)

After four days, double your dosage. Continue doubling every four days until you reach 1 gram per day.

You can divide your daily gram into smaller doses throughout the day (for example, 0.1g five times daily). This makes the process smoother and reduces strong psychoactive effects.

3. Standard Daily Routine

  • Morning: Take a small dose after breakfast. Wait at least four hours before redosing.

  • Afternoon: Take your second dose, ensuring enough hydration and rest.

  • Evening: Consume your final dose a few hours before bedtime to encourage relaxation and deep sleep.

Expected Effects and Body Adaptation

Feeling “high” is normal and temporary. Each individual reacts differently depending on their metabolism and THC sensitivity. Over time, your body will build tolerance, reducing psychoactive sensations while increasing the oil’s therapeutic effects.

Be patient and listen to your body. RSO works best when taken consistently and calmly.

Sample Dosage Plan

Week 1: Introduction Phase

  • Take ¼ of a drop (about half a rice grain) three times daily.

  • Wait one hour after ingestion to observe the effects.

  • Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery.

  • Use this week to monitor how your body reacts.

Weeks 2–5: Titration Phase

  • Every four days, double your dose.

  • Continue dosing every eight hours.

  • Gradually increase your intake until you reach 1 gram per day.

  • If needed, split your doses into smaller portions throughout the day.

Weeks 5–12: Full Protocol Phase

By this stage, you should be comfortable with your tolerance.

  • Maintain 1 gram per day (≈ 1ml or 9 drops).

  • Take doses every eight hours for balanced absorption.

  • This equals roughly 18 rice-grain-sized drops daily.

  • Continue daily until you reach a total of 60 grams.

Maintenance Phase (After 90 Days)

Once you complete the 90-day RSO treatment, transition into a maintenance dosage to preserve long-term benefits:

  • Take 1–2 grams per month as needed.

  • One gram equals about 8 drops from a syringe.

  • Many users prefer taking a small daily or near-daily dose to maintain wellness, manage inflammation, and prevent recurrence of symptoms.

Important Considerations

  • Psychoactive effects usually decrease over time as your tolerance builds.

  • Everyone’s chemistry is unique, so adjust your dosage according to your comfort level.

  • Hydrate well, eat nutritious meals, and get sufficient sleep during the protocol.

  • Never operate vehicles or machinery immediately after dosing.

  • Consult a healthcare provider before beginning this protocol, especially if you are taking prescription medication.
