CBD Oil for Horses

Can CBD for horses be taken with other medications? Generally, CBD for horses is very safe to use alongside prescription medicines and supplements. The only medicine group that has been reported to cause interactions with CBD are the benzodiazepines (most common drugs from this group to be prescribed by vets are diazepam and alprazolam). Reported side-effects when used together with CBD include drowsiness. 

What is the best CBD dosage for horses? 

Please refer to our dosage chart based on the weight of your pet. Naturecan horse CBD is a proprietary blend, formulated to offer a 1mg per 1kg dosage (morning and evening) based on your pet's weight. 

Can the dosage be increased? 

CBD is a safe compound and the appropriate dose will vary depending on your horse's requirements. As a result, the dose can be increased to 2mg per kg (morning and evening) if required, being double the dosage chart.

Can topical and ingestible be used together? 

Yes. Topical CBD products work transdermally, targeting key areas in the body, while ingested CBD is absorbed through the digestive tract. Use both in combination for optimum results for joint, mood and skin health. 

Is CBD Safe for horses? 

Naturecan Pet is the only horse CBD range that is able to deliver pet-safe CBD because it is guaranteed 100% THC, flavonoids and terpene free. All products are third party tested by an external testing laboratory and all results are available on the product page. 

Can my pet overdose on CBD? 

Overdose on pure CBD has not been reported in horses. Our Certificates of Analysis (CoA) can give you confidence that the product you are buying is pure CBD with no THC or other cannabinoids. It is these compounds that can cause serious harm to horses. Please beware that many pet products advertised as 'pure CBD' do contain dangerous traces of THC, and it is important for buyers to check CoAs. Naturecan Pet CBD is tested under the most stringent laboratory processes in the world, making our products ultra-safe. 

At Naturecan Pet, our key focus is formulating the best and safest products for your pet. We understand that if paw-rents are searching for horse CBD products, their pet may be ill or need some support to optimise their health, comfort and overall well being. 

With market leading innovative technology our priority for pet products is to refine CBD to be pure and safe, in its natural plant form. We do this by taking our Naturecan Broad-Spectrum CBD distillate used in our human range and refining it into a pure CBD and CBDA isolate using advanced chromatography technology. 

This proprietary blend allows us to offer the highest quality CBD and the correct strength for your pet. 

At Naturecan, product quality and safety are our number one priorities. While our human CBD contains other broad-spectrum hemp compounds alongside CBD which may contribute to enhanced benefits through the entourage effect, there is insufficient evidence that these additional compounds are safe for pets. 

That's why we remove all traces of terpenes, flavonoids and other cannabinoids from our pet CBD. We do this by taking our Naturecan Broad-Spectrum CBD distillate used in our human range and refining it into a pure CBD and CBDA isolate using advanced chromatography technology. 

What this further refinement process allows us to do is remove all traces of THC, as well as all flavonoids and terpenes, to deliver a safe and consistent CBD + CBDA isolate, guaranteed safe for pets. 

Naturecan is always striving to make CBD safer for animals. Normally horse CBD is delivered in glass droppers, but we don’t feel this is a safe way to drop CBD into a pet’s mouth, so we have moved to a syringe. You can clearly see the drops on the side of the syringe and can administer the oil into food if that is your preferred way to dose. 

We don’t offer plastic droppers as when CBD is stored in or near plastic it can break down and lose its strength.
