On the 5th of March the day „Medicinal Cannabis in the control of chronic pain, the Canadian experience“ organized by the Spanish Observatory of Medicinal Cannabis OEDCM will take place in the Illustrious Official College of Physicians of Madrid

The Canadian experience

The OECM is composed of researchers, doctors and patient associations that are related to the use of medicinal cannabis.

Since 2016, the OECM has been holding informative days on medicinal cannabis from a scientific and rigorous point of view. Given that the number of patients who use medicinal cannabis to treat chronic pain is increasing, the OECM has focused this day on this therapeutic application of cannabis and its derivatives based on the Canadian model.

This event is focused both for health professionals who want to know more about its applications in cannabinoid pain, as well as for patients who want to access honest information from experts: doctors, researchers and patients.

 

This day will have the participation of the following speakers.
