After decades of criminalization, many older adults still have questions about cannabis as a medicine and whether it can fit into their current health regimens. As attitudes towards cannabis continue to evolve, pharmacists are increasingly called upon to provide guidance on its use among seniors.
Many older adults may be considering cannabis for various health issues, including chronic pain, anxiety, and insomnia. However, concerns about safety, potential drug interactions, and the lack of comprehensive research can create confusion. Pharmacists play a crucial role in addressing these concerns, offering personalized advice based on individual health profiles and existing medications.
Education is key, as many seniors may not be aware of the differences between cannabis products, including THC and CBD concentrations. Pharmacists can help demystify these options, ensuring that older adults make informed decisions regarding their health. By fostering open conversations about cannabis, pharmacists can empower seniors to explore this alternative treatment safely and effectively.
