Cannabis - Taking the Medical Community by Surprise

In this first episode of the Natural Products Resource Center Podcast, we’re talking about how the broad legalization of medical cannabis in the United States has caught the medical community by surprise. Patients are going into marijuana dispensaries across the country, getting their cannabis from a budtender, and using (or misusing) the product. Meanwhile, their healthcare team is not prepared or armed with the information to properly incorporate cannabis into the patient’s treatment regimen.

What is Natural Products Resource Center?

Natural Products Resource Center (NPRC) is separating fact from fiction for natural products. Seasoned podcast host, Dr. Hillary Blackburn, recognized the lack of education for healthcare professionals on natural products such as medical cannabis. As a pharmacist, she receives questions about cannabis and other supplements on a regular basis. This podcast is not intended to be medical advice, but is for healthcare professionals or others interested in learning more about the emerging field of natural products as medicine.
