Is CBD a Possible Solution for My Pet's Health?
CBD, or cannabidiol, is an active ingredient found in marijuana plants. It is non-psychoactive and has potential health benefits, but its safety and effectiveness have not been approved by the FDA for use in pets. Currently, there is limited research on the effects of CBD in pets, but the interest is growing. CBD pet products, such as oils, treats, and topical products, are available for purchase, but it is important to check for contaminants and choose products from a reputable company with an up-to-date Certificate of Analysis. Giving your pet human CBD is not necessarily harmful, but it is important to check the label for harmful ingredients and follow any recommendations from your vet. Side effects in pets are similar to those in humans and may include changes in appetite, fatigue, and diarrhea. It is rare for pets to experience a "high" from CBD, but it can happen if the product contains a small amount of THC, which is the psychoactive component of marijuana.
