Considerations for Using Opioids and Cannabis to Treat Chronic Pain

Conference Coverage

Guest: Jason Busse, PhD
In light of the opioid epidemic, the use of cannabis for therapeutic purposes is becoming of interest. But since there are other alternatives that are often more effective and have better safety profiles, it’s important to understand the evidence and guideline recommendations around these two treatment options. Here to share key considerations for using opioids and cannabis to treat patients living with chronic pain is Dr. Jason Busse, who presented a session on this exact topic at the 2024 Congress of Clinical Rheumatology.
