ISO: Speakers for Upcoming Events


We are looking for members to speak on the different roles of the pharmacist in the Cannabis industry, as part of our ongoing Inside the Canna Industry series. Potential topics that are available include Dispensary pharmacist (how did we miss such an obvious role!), Regulatory (for those involved with government  oversight programs), and Academia (especially if your coursework is part of a PharmD program). 

We are also looking to continue our State of Cannabis series and are looking for presenters to speak about the laws and nature of the medical/adult-use program in their state. We can partner you with a pharmacy student to help with the presentation slides if you need assistance. 

If you are interested, please reply to this email or email us directly at info@cannabispharmacist.org

ISO: Institutional Hospitals with Acute Cannabis Intoxication  

 

Anebulo Pharmaceuticals is conducting a study to understand the THC levels of patients visiting care facilities with Acute Cannabinoid Intoxication (ACI). This information is needed for the development of a CB1 antagonist that reverses ACI effects.
If your hospital sees ACI patients at least weekly, and your department is interested in participating in this study, please contact Linda to obtain more information: linda@anebulo.com

Seeking Volunteers for Observational Study 

 

AIMA, a vaginal health company, is transforming the lives of
menstruators by delivering their patent-pending formulation of CBD, CBG and other active agents locally to the vagina and uterus. AIMA targets a wide range of conditions, from period pain to pelvic pain. Their first product is a vaginal suppository for period pain: the OVY.  AIMA is seeking clinicians interested in recommending this vaginal suppository and is offering a free sample in exchange for completing a survey before and after use to be included in their observational study.
For more information, contact AIMA or visit their website. Please complete (or have your patients complete) their survey to obtain baseline symptoms. The survey is available on their website or the direct link is available here

Please note: this is not a sponsored post and ISCPh is voluntarily sharing this information with our membership to help obtain data on cannabis vaginal suppositories
