DOSE:
  repeated oral Pharms - Dronabinol (pill / tablet)
BODY WEIGHT: 120 lb
I got 240 Marinol to experiment. First off let me mention that these pills are very costly. I think it came to around 25 dollars a pill. Insurance covered it. Marinol 10 mg orange tablets. They are stored in the refridge. It contains dronabinol in a sesame seed oil base.

So here's how it went. The first time I tried them I took one and hours went by with no noticable effects. So the next day I took two and again no effect that I could notice. The third day I took 3 figuring I would notice it, but still not really something I could say much about. So the next day it was 5 and at this point I figured it was really weak. So the next day at night I decided to on a whim take ten. You have to understand that I didn't notice barely anything at five so I figured what the hell. I ate ten and about and hour later retired to bed.

Maybe two hours after I ate them and about an hour of sleeping I woke up with a very peculiar feeling. I was laughing as if I was being tickled. It was by no means pleasant and I had a feeling of high altitude and light headedness. It was not like eating herb. It was really not fun. I almost went to the ER but got some charcoal in me and it mellowed after a few hours. Marinol is a sad replacment for pot.
