All things Pharma! Whether you are in the industry, interested in organic chemistry, or antique pharmaceutical novelties.

Scientific articles are preferred but not required as long as discussion is sparked.

No requests or sourcing for illegal sales/possession or any of that nonsense

Respect for each individual. That means we expect nurses to not post constant complaints about hospital pharmacy and we can't talk about how nurses almost always refuse counsel. Light hearted and silly is encouraged though because pharmacy right now in all forms is absolutely bananas and some reprieve is crucial to mental health.

I didn’t think I’d have to say it, but don’t post ridiculous political articles bUt ThINk oF ThE cHilDren rhetoric and scare tactics. This is not the place for grandstanding.

Would love to enlist an RPh as a mod so if interested, let me know****

A growing body of evidence linking pot use during adolescence to both mental illness and changes in the reward circuitry of the brain that likely contribute to later addictions to other drugs, and the stage is set for yet another youth mental-health crisis on top of a wave of depression, anxiety and attempted self-harm thanks to disastrous school-closure policies during the pandemic.

Yes, we should keep giving cops a cheap way to lock up PoC because kids might do something bad that they’re already doing anyway whether it’s legal or not. Makes total sense. Murica. /s

I agree.

I think decriminalization needs to be matched with an "anti-smoking" type educational campaign.

Tabacco is legal, but people use it less and less as they learn about the negative impacts on their health and the health of their loved ones.

If we compare to tobacco, the anti-smoking campaigns (combined with moves to cleaner methods like vaping) has all but eradicated smoking tobacco in youths. I wonder if it would really be so bad to encourage edibles if the kids are going to do it?
