With the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill, cannabidiol (CBD) was removed from the schedule of controlled substances and has gained high popularity in the general public for the self-treatment of several conditions such as pain, anxiety, and sleep disorders.

With CBD products available on the internet, in convenience stores, and in pharmacies, pharmacists need to be educated and prepared to counsel patients on the safe and efficacious use of CBD-containing products..
