CBD for Pets

CBD DELIVERY METHODS FOR PETS

CBD oil, which is usually diluted in a carrier such as olive oil, coconut oil, or MCT oil, is one of the simplest ways to administer the medicine to pets. It can be added to food or given directly by mouth. Preparations of a highly concentrated extract (CO2 is the cleanest methods) are diluted in the carrier to make appropriate dosing possible. Without dilution, the concentrated extracts are difficult to dose with accuracy in small animals. Using undiluted concentrates greatly increases the chance of accidental overdose.

In addition to oils, cannabis-infused treats are available for pets. CBD oil made from hemp are sold over the counter nationwide. Hemp-based CBD oils have little to no THC, are very safe, and are often effective for mild to moderate aches and pains.

CBD has particular affinities for treating conditions such as gastrointestinal disease and seizures. The primary goal when using CBD as medicine in pets (and people) is determining which compounds can be used most safely and effectively.
