Pharmacy Students and Over the Counter Cannabidiol: A Survey on Knowledge and Educational Needs

by Lauren Skarupa, PharmD, Maithili Deshpande, PhD

"Cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are two types of naturally occurring phytocannabinoids isolated from the cannabis plant. Hemp and marijuana are both cannabis plant species, but different varieties, with hemp having little to no THC. The psychoactive properties that are often associated with marijuana products are due to the presence of THC. CBD has relatively low toxicity and has shown no indications of abuse or dependence potential among humans. In 2019, two of the largest retail pharmacy chains in the United States, CVS and Walgreens, announced that they would begin carrying and selling CBD-containing products in multiple states across the country, including Illinois and Indiana. These products contain CBD derived from the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa L.) and have less than 0.3% THC. They are available over the counter (OTC) in a wide variety of formulations, including capsules, oils, tablets, high-concentration extracts, creams, vape liquids, teas, and others."
