GUILD Learning and Development has developed a new online course titled Harm Reduction: A guide for pharmacists.
This module outlines the concept of harm reduction, why it is important, and the role of the pharmacist.
The module also discusses two of the best-known harm reduction strategies that are delivered in community pharmacy: the needle and syringe program, and pharmacist-only supply of naloxone.
