Seizure management in patients with Dravet syndrome (DS), Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), or tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) can be extremely challenging, since current antiepileptic drugs, even in combination, are usually insufficient for preventing recurrent severe seizures associated with these treatment-resistant epilepsies. A prescription pharmaceutical formulation of highly purified cannabidiol (CBD) is approved for the treatment of seizures in patients 1 year of age or older with DS, LGS, and TSC, making it the first plant-derived cannabis-based medicine approved by the FDA. In this activity, based on a recent live webcast, neurology and pharmacy expert panelists will interpret the latest clinical evidence shaping optimal use of FDA-approved CBD for the management of severe treatment-resistant epilepsies and will provide their perspectives on recent regulatory decisions that impact patient and provider access to this therapy. Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: Describe the rationale for and potential benefits of cannabidiol (CBD) for patients with seizure disorders and other medical conditions, Summarize the characteristics, efficacy/safety profiles, and current indications of oral CBD in treatment-resistant epilepsies, Review the impact of recent legal and regulatory decisions on the availability, distribution, and payer coverage of an FDA-approved oral CBD formulation, Integrate cannabidiol into treatment plans for appropriate patients with treatment-resistant epilepsies in managed care settings, Educate patients, caregivers, and other members of the managed care team about the distinction between pharmaceutical-quality and dispensary-derived cannabinoid products.
