Cannabis Therapeutics & Policy A Substantive Discussion of a Substance Worth Discussing

Learn about therapeutic and policy considerations in the medical use of cannabis from three expert instructors who have taught thousands of clinicians in state-approved certification courses. After a brief review of the endocannabinoid system and pharmacology, this webinar focuses on considerations around practice integration, risk management and addiction. How do you discuss potential drug interactions, adverse events, and cannabis use disorder with patients? What protocols should be in place for your facility, program, or hospital? We discuss regulatory concerns and controversies, including the impact of cannabis legalization on the drug overdose crisis, and leave plenty of time for questions.
