HolistaPet Launches New Line of CBD Products for Horses


cbd oil pellets for horses

After months of careful research and development, we have created a line of products that aims to provide holistic relief and overall wellness for all horses.

HolistaPet, a leading CBD manufacturer for pets, today announced a new line of CBD products for horses, which include CBD Oil for Horses and CBD Pellets for Horses. The line of horse products contains all-natural, plant-based ingredients with full-spectrum CBD, and offers all of the benefits of CBD to horses.

“We are truly excited to bring the amazing benefits of our CBD products to horses. All horses have an endocannabinoid system, just as dogs, cats, and humans do. Because of this, they are able to benefit from the cannabinoids found in the hemp plant,” says Charlotte Hodgson, Partner at HolistaPet. “After months of careful research and development, we have created a line of products that aims to provide holistic relief and overall wellness for all horses.”

Each product includes full-spectrum CBD oil, dosed specifically for horses:


  • CBD Oil for Horses, 7500mg; MSRP $294.95
  • CBD Pellets for Horses, 3000mg; MSRP $79.95

The horse products are currently available on the HolistaPet website, HolistaPet.com, and will begin shipping to retailers this month. The new line expands HolistaPet’s offering from cat and dog products to include horses as well. All products are lab tested by a third party to ensure that purity and quality standards are met, and THC levels are under 0.3%.

Dr. Kevin Hogan Completes Fellowship in Dental Implants with Misch International Implant Institute

I’m proud to have completed this rigorous training and excited to offer patients more advanced implant care back at home.

Experienced dentist, Dr. Kevin Hogan, has completed a fellowship in dental implantology at Misch International Implant Institute. Completing this three-year program enhances Dr. Hogan’s expertise on the placement and restoration of dental implants for Mt.

Dental implants are an advanced treatment for patients suffering from tooth loss who would like a permanent tooth replacement solution.

Dr. Hogan’s commitment to patient results, safety and his own education is what encouraged him to pursue this fellowship status. With this training and education, patients can expect leading implant care from Dr. Hogan.

In addition to dental implants for tooth replacement, Dr. Hogan offers a plethora of dental services at his practice, Smiles by Hogan.

Georgetown Home Care Lowers Preventable Hospital Readmissions With Its Key Program


“What was more amazing was how the readmission rate went right back up when the pilot ended.” – Ruth Adonizio, Director of Readmission Reduction at Medstar Georgetown University Hospital

Georgetown Home Care (GHC) recently conducted a pilot program, now called the Key Program, with Medstar Georgetown University Hospital (no affiliation) that significantly lowered their preventable hospital readmission rate.

The pilot program targeted spinal surgery patients, and in two months was able to reduce the hospital’s preventable readmissions by 44% among this population. Georgetown Home Care has signed a contract with Medstar Georgetown University Hospital to continue and expand this program to more departments within the hospital for fiscal year 2020. Through this collaboration, GHC foresees a significant improvement in patient outcomes.

“It was amazing what a positive effect the GHC pilot program had on our readmission rates!” said Ruth Adonizio, Director of Readmission Reduction at Medstar Georgetown University Hospital. “What was more amazing was how the readmission rate went right back up when the pilot ended. This was a big reason we agreed to sign a contract to continue the program with GHC.”

Georgetown Home Care achieved these results by implementing a proprietary process that is the result of closely studying the widespread problem of preventable hospital readmissions and enabling better transitions to home. “Our partnership with Medstar Georgetown University Hospital produced outstanding results,” says John Bradshaw, President of Georgetown Home Care. “By working closely with hospital leadership, we were able to customize a repeatable process to help them lower their rate of readmission significantly. We couldn’t be happier with the results and our on-going partnership.” From an institutional perspective, GHC’s Key Program produces results in a more cost effective and easier way than if the hospital or facility were to try and recreate this in house.

GHC’s Key Program was designed to answer the question of “why do patients keep coming back here?” The Key Program is a proprietary program that provides Nurse Practitioners to make house calls following a transition home from the hospital. The Key Program gives physicians eyes and ears in the home in order to better understand the patient’s ability to recover and what makes some more successful than others at doing so.

As of November 2019, GHC’s Key Program is available to all hospitals and facilities in the DC metro area.

DuPont Reveals Enhanced Application and Innovation Center, Increased Production Capacity at CPhI India


News Image

In today’s pharma industry, you must do more than just provide quality ingredients to make an impact; you have to accompany formulators through a product’s entire lifecycle.

DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences has consistently advanced its customers forward by ensuring global access to indispensable ingredients and unmatched expertise. At CPhI India, Nov. 26-28, the company will showcase increased capacity on both fronts, in addition to several product innovations such as solubility-enhancing polymers and vegetarian capsule offerings.

DuPont experts will be available at stand 8.Q20 to discuss a wide range of developments, including updated R&D capabilities at the DuPont Knowledge Center (DKC) in Hyderabad, India. The site has been a hub of innovation in the Genome Valley district since it opened in 2008. With new investments, the DKC will become South Asia’s premier application development and innovation facility for oral dosage delivery solutions, direct compression and solubility enhancement, as well as probiotics and biosciences. Manufacturers in South Asia will have unprecedented access to capabilities such as spray drying, hot melt extrusion, compaction simulation and advanced analytical equipment, all of which can solve formulation challenges posed by poorly soluble drugs. DuPont’s ultimate goal in updating the DKC is to help its customers test, research, develop and improve products to make them better, safer and more accessible.

In addition, DuPont will unveil its increased capacity to produce METHOCEL™ Premium HPMC, which will now be manufactured in both Stade, Germany, and Midland, Michigan, U.S. The Stade-based facility will benefit customers in Europe and India, who can now expect shorter lead times for shipments, business continuity planning support, supply chain management and non-GMO labelling for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical markets.

Formulation and product experts will also be on hand to discuss DuPont’s industry-leading products and capabilities, which include:


  • Enhanced R&D capabilities to create solutions for any manufacturing need, including controlled, immediate and delayed release; solubility enhancement; and nutraceuticals.
  • A global state-of-the-art manufacturing network that meets stringent regulatory and quality requirements to ensure all excipients meet ever-evolving standards.
  • International regulatory expertise and local market insights that enable formulators to obtain faster registration approvals.
  • Leadership in quality and regulatory support, which encompasses QbD support, highlighting regulatory education and full-spectrum guidance for drug product filing with DuPont excipients.
  • An innovative ingredient portfolio that includes SeaGel®, a vegetarian capsule offering aimed at meeting demand for plant-based options; and Aquateric™ N100, a cutting-edge enteric coating made from Norwegian brown seaweed; along with HOWARU® premium probiotics, a comprehensive range of clinically documented strains supporting digestive health, immune health, and a range of other health benefits. A wide array of controlled and immediate release solutions will also be on display.

“In today’s pharma industry, you must do more than just provide quality ingredients to make an impact; you have to accompany formulators through a product’s entire lifecycle,” said Savindu Kudrigikar, Business Director, South Asia at DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences. “For us, that means investing in our ability to meet demand and to educate formulators around the world. It all comes down to granting our customers the resources they need to deliver on the promise of a healthier life.”

DuPont now also offers a 70-year presence in silicone-based technology through the legacy of Dow Corning brands and technical experts who have joined the company. Our solutions include pharmaceutical excipients for a safe and efficacious delivery of actives in transdermal and topical therapies, and we also improve the spreadability and sensory aesthetics of semi-solid forms, which can lead to greater comfort and compliance for patients.

As the market for high-quality topical solutions for medical conditions has grown, DuPont’s portfolio has responded with solutions that are designed to deliver the performance consumers expect and the regulatory compliance formulators need.

Chattanooga, TN Periodontists, Drs. Charles Felts and Elizabeth Felts Randall, Bring Entire Staff to National AAP Meeting


Drs. Elizabeth Randall and Charles Felts, Periodontists in Chattanooga, TN

Drs. Elizabeth Felts Randall and Charles Felts Attend the 105th Annual AAP Meeting

Periodontists Drs. Felts and Randall believe in continuous training and education so they can stay current in the industry and better serve their patients.

Chattanooga, TN based periodontists, Drs. Charles Felts and Elizabeth Felts Randall, along with their entire staff, recently attended the 105th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) in Chicago, IL. The AAP Annual Meetings are designed for attendees to learn, share experiences, and network with fellow periodontists, staff, and dental professionals. The team at Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants brought back what they learned at this event to better serve their patients.

This year’s AAP Annual Meeting featured over 50 courses and 100 speakers for attendees to learn from. One keynote speaker, Dr. Jack Cochran, spoke on the challenges facing all healthcare providers and how periodontics can adapt to the shifting health policy landscape. The meeting took place over four days and offered attendees more than 25 hours of continuing education credits.

Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants offers leading periodontal and dental implant care. Periodontists Drs. Felts and Randall believe in continuous training and education so they can stay current in the industry and better serve their patients. The practice offers cutting-edge treatments, including:

  • LANAP® laser gum disease treatment
  • Gum recession treatment
  • Dental implants
  • Oral plastic surgery
  • IV sedation

As experienced periodontists, Drs. Felts and Randall offer modern dental implant solutions, including TeethXpress® full mouth dental implants. Considered the gold standard solution to replace missing teeth, dental implants mimic the function and appearance of natural teeth after they have been lost or extracted. TeethXpress is a revolutionary approach to tooth replacement for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth. By securing a bridge of lifelike new teeth to dental implants, Drs. Felts and Randall can restore virtually full function and appearance to a patient’s smile.

To make the dental implant surgery easier for patients, this team of periodontists offers IV sedation, which both Drs. Felts and Randall are certified to administer. With IV sedation, the TeethXpress full mouth dental implant process becomes easier as patients can experience reduced dental fear and anxiety, and typically have no memory of the procedure.

Those interested in learning more about Chattanooga Periodontics and Dental Implants, or who would like to talk with skilled periodontists in Chattanooga, TN about dental implant options, are encouraged to schedule a consultation by calling 423-756-2450 or visiting http://www.chattanoogaperio.com.
