DESCRIPTION:Medical cannabis has become legal in several states\, allowing 
 clinicians to prescribe it. However\, studies have demonstrated that presc
 ribers may not be equipped with adequate knowledge to prescribe marijuana 
 products. Even clinicians who are not prescribing still encounter patients
  who are using marijuana in various forms. Patients additionally have thei
 r own expectations which\nmay not be based on the science of cannabis. Thi
 s seminar will overview the pharmacology and therapeutics of cannabis prod
 ucts as well as the impact the use of these products may have on\nthe pati
 ent\, such as drug testing results\, employment and driving. The lecture w
 ill also review legal limitations of state cannabis laws.\n\nDr. Randall T
 ackett received his Ph.D. in Pharmacology and Toxicology from the Universi
 ty of Georgia. After completion of a postdoctoral fellowship at the Medica
 l University of South Carolina\, he returned to the University of Georgia 
 College of Pharmacy as an Assistant Professor. He is currently Professor a
