  • What is CBD?
    CBD, or cannabidiol, is one of the many cannabinoids, a type of compound, found naturally in the hemp plant. It interacts with your body’s receptors to promote overall health and wellbeing, as well as other potential benefits.
  • Where is your hemp grown?
    All of our hemp is grown right here in the USA.
  • What are the benefits of CBD?
    CBD has a number of potential benefits, including supporting overall health and well-being, easing occasional stress and anxiety, supporting a healthy sleep cycle, and easing slight aches and pains due to overexertion.
  • Does your CBD contain THC?
    No, our CBD does not contain any THC and is verified by our third-party test reports which are all published on our site.
  • How is CBD water soluble?
    When CBD is naturally extracted from the hemp plant, it exists in oil form, which does not want to mix with water. Using our patent-pending pico-technology, we’re able to reduce the size of the CBD molecule to a point where it can be fully encased in a water molecule, making it fully water soluble.
  • What is bioavailability?
    Bioavailability is the percentage of a given substance that your body actually absorbs. CBD has different rates of bioavailability based on how it is used: ingested, sublingual, vape, topical, or intravenous.
  • What is the bioavailability of the Pico IV?
    With most of the common methods of taking CBD, your body only absorbs a percentage of the CBD. However, because the CBD molecule is so small with our Pico IV, your body is able to absorb nearly 100% of the CBD.
  • Is CBD legal?
    CBD is federally legal in all 50 states according to the standards set forth in the 2018 Farm Bill. Our CBD contains 0.0% Delta 9 THC. Be sure to consult the laws of your state or territory.
  • Why has a CBD IV never existed before?
    The size of the CBD molecule is crucial when creating this product. Up until this point, it has never been able to be small enough to pass through a sterile filtration process. So any filter that removes bacteria or other contaminants, would also filter out the CBD. Using our patent-pending technology, we’re able to make CBD small enough to pass through the sterile filter and become water-soluble.
  • What is a Pico emulsion?
    A pico emulsion is where the CBD molecules are reduced to the size of a pico and are emulsified in water. If you shop for water-soluble CBD, you’ll find many companies that offer nano-emulsions (with bigger CBD) molecules. But we are the only ones to offer a pico emulsion of CBD.
  • What are the recommended dosage guidelines?
    For first time users, we recommend providers start with no more than 6.25ml (10mg) dose in a 1000ml saline bag. This allows the provider to gauge sensitivity to CBD or the potential to experience chills. For more detailed instructions, please review the dosage guide found in the member portal.
  • Is the solution sterile?
    Yes, our solution is completely sterile and safe for intravenous use.
  • Has the solution been third-party tested?
    Yes, all of our products are third-party tested for purity and potency, as well as microbials, pesticides, metals, mycotoxins, or residual solvents.
  • Where can I find third-party test reports?
    We publish all of our third-party test reports on our website and are available here.
  • Can the IV be used with other IV products?
    Yes, you can use Pico IV in combination with IV therapies. However, we do not recommend mixing with NAD therapy as it can increase the chances of detox or flu-like symptoms. It can be used well with fluids such as myers cocktail, vitamins and other maintenance fluids. Please review dosage guide found in provider portal for more detailed information.
  • What is Pico IV or CBD IV therapy?
    During CBD IV therapy, CBD, or cannabidiol, is administered directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous (IV) infusion. IV therapy allows for rapid absorption, increased bioavailability, and potentially enhanced therapeutic effects compared to other delivery methods.
  • How does CBD IV therapy work?
    During a CBD IV session, a healthcare professional will insert an IV line into your vein. The CBD solution is then infused directly into your bloodstream. CBD interacts with receptors in the endocannabinoid system, which is involved in regulating various bodily functions.
  • Are there any side effects of CBD IV therapy?
    CBD is generally well-tolerated, and serious side effects are rare. Depending on your sensitivity to CBD, you may experience. In higher doses, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as flu-like symptoms, drowsiness, dry mouth, changes in appetite, or gastrointestinal discomfort. It's important to discuss any potential risks or interactions with your provider beforehand.
  • Can anyone receive CBD IV therapy?
    CBD IV therapy may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as liver disease or low blood pressure, may need to avoid or use caution with CBD IVs. Inform your provider about your medical history and any medications you're taking to ensure safety and efficacy.
  • How long does a Pico IV session last?
    The duration of each can vary depending on the specific protocol and individual factors. Generally, sessions may range from 30 minutes to an hour. Your provider will determine the appropriate infusion time for your needs.
  • How many Pico IV sessions are recommended?
    The number of Pico IV sessions needed varies depending on your goals, concerns, and response to treatment. Some individuals may benefit from a single session, while others may require multiple sessions over a designated period. Your provider can guide you on the recommended treatment plan. We recommend waiting at least 2 weeks in between PICO IV therapies.
  • My Pico IV Vial has a yellow or purple tint to it. Is this normal?
    Yes, this is actually to be expected. CBD will naturally tint to a yellow or purple color when exposed to direct sunlight. This is normal and safe and only causes slight degradation of about .1% per month in efficacy of the product. We do recommend storing the product in a dark room at room temperature.
  • Can PICO IV be directly injected intramuscularly?
    We are currently undergoing studies with the Institutional Review Board on the safety and proper dosage of direct injections. We ask that it is not administered via IM injections until we have more data and clinical trials through the IRB.
  • What is the osmolarity of PICO IV?
    PICO IV has an osmolarity of 2 Osml/L.
  • What is the proper way to store PICO IV?
    PICO IV does not need to be refrigerated and should be stored at room temperature. It should not be exposed to deviations of temperature, exceeding more than 30° Fahrenheit from room temperature.
  • What is the shelf life and puncture life of a vial of PICO IV?
    The shelf life of a PICO IV vial is 12 months without puncture. Once punctured, please use or discard the vial within 28 day period.
  • Who can purchase Pico IV?
    Pico IV is currently only available to physicians, providers, and IV therapy clinics. It is not available for retail sale or personal use.
  • Do you require minimum orders?
    No, we do not require minimum orders for purchase.
  • Where do you ship?
    We ship to all fifty states in the US.
  • Do you offer any other cannabinoids in IV form?
    We currently only offer CBD in IV form, but are working on developing other IV hemp products for purchase.
  • Do you sell other CBD products?
    You can shop other CBD products at ApexLabsCBD.com. We offer bulk quantities, as well as white-label services, making it easy for you to stock your shelves with more quality CBD products that you can trust.
