ISMS supports provisions to enhance medical cannabis pilot program

One of the state’s medical societies supports several measures they hope will enhance Illinois Medical Cannabis Pilot Program.

 

Though they are neutral on the pilot program, Illinois State Medical Society President Dr. Scott Cooper says they support a measure to add medical cannabis to the prescription drug monitoring program, something that could help identify potential drug interactions.

 

 

Cooper says ISMS also wants more information given to patients when patients pick up their product.

 

 

Both provisions are found in Senate Bill 2378, which was introduced this month and has been assigned to the Senate Executive Committee.
