Scientists call on US to allow research on pot meds for pets By ANDREW SELSKY Associated Press BEND — Dr. Byron Maas surveys a supply of marijuana products for dogs that lines a shelf in his veterinary clinic. They’re selling well. “The ‘Up and Moving’ is for joints and for pain,” he explains. “The ‘Calm and Quiet’ is for real anxious dogs, to take away that anxiety.” People anxious to relieve suffering in their pets are increasingly turning to oils and powders that contain CBDs, a nonpsychoactive component of marijuana. But there’s little data on whether they work, or if they have harmful side effects. That’s because Washing- ton, D.C., has been standing in the way of clinical trials, vet- erinarians and researchers say. Now, a push is underway to have barriers removed, so both pets and people can benefit. Those barriers have had more than just a chilling effect. When the federal Drug Enforcement Administration Fri.

Colorado State Uni- versity is pushing ahead. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has warned companies that sell marijuana products online and via pet shops and animal hospitals that they’re violating laws by offering “unapproved new ani- mal drugs.” The FDA threat- ened legal action. But, seeing potential ben- efits of CBDs, the American Veterinary Medical Associ- ation’s policy-making body said last summer it wants the DEA to declassify marijuana as a Schedule 1 drug “to facil- itate research opportunities for veterinary and human medical uses.” It asked the board of the national veterinarians’ organi- zation to investigate working with other stakeholders toward that goal. The board is await- ing a recommendation from two group councils. “The concern our member- ship has is worry about people extrapolating their own dos- ages, looking to medicate their pets outside the realm of the medical professional,” Board Chairman Michael Whitehair said in a telephone interview. “This is an important reason for us to continue the research.” U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch, a conservative Utah Republican, became an unlikely champion of this push when he intro- duced a bill in September that would open the path for more clinical research. While Hatch said he opposes recreational marijuana use, he wants mar- ijuana-based drugs, regulated by the FDA, produced for peo- ple with disorders. “We lack the science to support use of medical mari- juana products like CBD oils, not because researchers are unwilling to do the work, but because of bureaucratic red tape and over-regulation,” Hatch said.
