Pharmacists

Description

The North Carolina General Assembly has passed, and Governor Cooper has signed into law, legislation that authorizes qualified immunizing pharmacists to administer long-acting injectable medications to patients age 18 and older pursuant to prescription. This new authority became effective on October 1, 2021.

This knowledge-based CPE activity will provide pharmacists with a better understanding the counseling points, the available products, and management of these behavioral health injectable deport agents in order to better implement this law in the pharmacy setting.
