The importance of continuing education on the topic of cannabis in medicine is very high. Few physicians have had any contact with this topic so far. Continuing education for medical professionals in this area is urgently needed. The PHYTOMED events offer a unique opportunity to expand knowledge and understand current developments.
We encourage you to actively inform your doctors about these continuing education opportunities. Solid training enables medical professionals to provide their patients with the best possible care. Many thanks to PHYTOMED AG for organizing these informative and educational events.
the Association has been working to ensure that patients in Switzerland can use cannabis as medicine. Become a member or support us with a donation .
