Efficacy of a 20:1 CBD:THC cannabis herbal extract for pain and inflammation in dogs following tibial plateau leveling osteotomy
Overall, administration of an oral 20:1 CBD: THC cannabis herbal extract in addition to a standard analgesic protocol did not improve analgesia and limb function following TPLO surgery in dogs. Minor functional benefits may have occurred in the higher CHE dose group, but only on the first day following surgery. Current multimodal peri- and post-operative analgesic practices were effective, irrespective of CHE administration.
