Whether cannabis products are used for medical or recreational purposes, patients always benefit from conversations with a knowledgeable pharmacist who can guide them toward safe, appropriate use and minimize their risk for adverse effects. Pharmacists can only fulfill their role within the healthcare team when they know as much about cannabis as any other pharmacological treatment.

RxAdvanced: Guide to Cannabis offers pharmacists 16 hours of ACPE-accredited training. Regardless of your practice setting, you’ll receive a comprehensive cannabis education online and available 24/7.
