CBD Oil and Pets

In Response to the CBD craze in pet food this is the Current State of CBD Legislation in the US, according to the Pet Food Industry: The US FDA has pointed out that the changes regarding hemp in the US law does not affect the agency’s authority to regulate food and drugs in the country. The FDA unequivocally asserts that any product bearing claims to treat, prevent or otherwise affect a disease or condition would be subject to enforcement action as an adulterated drug unless expressly approved by the agency, according to David Daznis, DVM, PhD., D.A.C.V.N, CEO of Regulatory Discretion, in a pet food Industry column earlier this year. Further, even without claims, it’s unlawful to introduce food (including pet food) containing added CBD (or THC) into interstate commerce, regardless of whether these substances were a hemp derivative or not.
