Store in a cool dry place.
Tincture drops can be placed under the tongue, or in your favorite beverage. When placing the drops directly under your tongue, it goes straight into your blood stream. Placing drops in your beverage will take a little longer for the tincture to take affect, as it is relying on your digestive system.
Tinctures typically last between 5-10 years depending on how it is cared for and stored. If taking drops under your tongue, make sure not to let bodily fluids touch the dropper. This would allow bacteria to enter the bottle and decrease shelf life.
Comparison with Opium
Opium is derived from the unripe seedpods of the opium poppy and has been used for centuries as a potent analgesic and sedative. In contrast, wild lettuce offers a more natural alternative that some people seek due to concerns about the side effects associated with conventional medications like opiates. Although both substances can provide relief from pain, wild lettuce is often viewed as a safer option due to its lower potential for addiction and fewer severe side effects.
