Physician-led health care technology company introduces new help line to assist Canadians with questions regarding medical cannabis
TORONTO, Aug. 25, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Starting today, a new cannabis information line will be available to all Canadians. Designed by doctors, Cannalogue’s CBDHelp is a free telephone information line for individuals or caregivers looking for general guidance on medical cannabis including recommended uses and applications for cannabidiol (CBD).
Staffed by medical professionals, CBDHelp was developed by Cannalogue as a way to help better educate consumers about the potential benefits of medical cannabis in treating a variety of conditions including anxiety, stress, difficulty sleeping, gastrointestinal issues and chronic pain, among others.
“We launched CBDHelp in response to the growing number of inquiries we were receiving about how and when to use medical cannabis,” says Dr Mohan Cooray, President and CEO of Cannalogue. “There continues to be a tremendous amount of misinformation and stigma associated with cannabis use and we wanted to help Canadians understand the benefits of cannabinoids such as CBD as an alternative to harmful and often addictive pharmaceutical therapies,” he says.
CBDHelp is available Monday-Friday from 9am – 5pm EST by calling toll free at 1-833-CANNA-4-U (1-833-226-6248). Call backs can also be arranged at CBDHelp.
