Millbrook Pharmacy Takes Innovative Approach to Combat Opioid Crisis

An independent pharmacy located in Millbrook, New York adds cannabinoids, such as CBD, to patients’ regimen to significantly reduce opioid use.

Millbrook, NY, December 03, 2018 --(PR.com)-- In order to win the war on opioids, Millbrook Pharmacy is aligning with opioid prescribers on a collaborative care approach using cannabinoids, such as CBD, that is proving to significantly reduce opioid use in their pain patients.

According to Dr. Sonny Shah, RPh, PharmD, the Pharmacist-in-charge at Millbrook Pharmacy, “We know that pharmacists are the last line of defense between the patient and the prescription. If we can educate our patients and our physicians on the research that’s out there, it shows that cannabinoids, such as CBD, are significantly reducing the amount of opioids that a patient may need.”

Shah is referring to two groundbreaking studies on cannabinoids and pain reduction. The Boehnke Study shows that adding cannabinoids, such as CBD, reduced opioid use by at least 60%. In the Reiman Study, 80% of patients felt that cannabinoids relieved their pain better than opioids.

According to Shah, “We’re doing a community outreach to physicians to let them know that there is something else out there other than opioids that’s non-addictive - and it works. I have chronic pain patients come in after trying Ananda Professional CBD products who are amazed at the results they are seeing.”

Millbrook Pharmacy carries Ananda Professional CBD products because they are the highest quality CBD on the market today. Shah adds: “After researching a lot of CBD companies out there, we chose to carry Ananda Professional products. Ananda Professional believes in complete transparency. They show you everything that is (and isn’t) in their products by giving you a Certificate of Analysis on every product they make. Their products are non-addictive, all-natural, safe, effective and legal.”
