It is important that clinicians be familiar with the physiologic effects of CBD; its drug interactions; side effects; and for which conditions it has been shown by evidence-based clinical studies to be efficacious. This course is designed to acquaint clinicians with the information that will assist them in effectively treating and counseling CBD consumers.
