CBD - Science Confirms Safe Effective Daily Dose Of CBD For Dogs - Long-Term And No Risks | Benzinga
Healthy dogs can safely consume cannabinoids like CBD, CBDA and CBG daily with minimal risks, making them well-tolerated for long-term use, according to a new study.
"Cannabinoids were well tolerated when healthy male and female beagles were dosed for 90 consecutive days," according to results published recently in the journal Frontiers in Veterinary Science. "Based on the results of this study, other published studies, and data from extensive post-market surveillance, hemp-derived cannabinoids are well tolerated in healthy dogs at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight/day."
The study included 32 healthy beagles, 16 males and 16 females.
The four treatment groups were given either medium-chain triglyceride oil as a placebo or one of the following: broad-spectrum cannabidiol (CBD), broad-spectrum cannabidiol with cannabigerol (CBG) or broad-spectrum cannabidiol with cannabidiolic acid (CBDA). The pups were given 5 milligrams of total cannabinoids per kilogram of body weight per day for 90 consecutive days.
