I have a dog that's had pretty severe epilepsy for the last 7 years. We've had her on 5 different epilepsy drugs, and eventually settled on a specific mix that seems to work well for her.
We considered CBD, but a medical dosage of it is insanely expensive compared to traditional drugs. This article (and the paper's abstract) doesn't mention the doses used in this study.

How much does it cost there?
CBD oil typically costs $0.10 per mg doesn’t it?
Medicinal doses are about 2 mg per pound, twice per day. So for your 70 pound dog that’s a cool $800 a month. Too much money for us.
