The course offers physicians and pharmacists a valuable opportunity to expand their knowledge of the medical applications of cannabinoids and to use them responsibly in practice. PHYTOMED AG is a patient supporter and supports MEDCAN through a corporate membership.

MEDCAN appeals to physicians and medical facilities to strengthen their support for prescribing cannabis in medicine and to promote training in this area. Numerous studies demonstrate the medical benefits of cannabis, and it is time to put this knowledge into practice. Through comprehensive education and training, chronically ill individuals can have access to an alternative treatment option to conventional medications. MEDCAN possesses extensive expertise and is ready to share it with others.
