Pharmacist Continuing Education
The PREMIER Center will work with professional organizations and content experts to develop CE programs focused on prescription drug misuse issues and regulatory requirements. The Center offers robust educational programming that cover topics related to prescription drug misuse, opioid use disorder and other topics that meet the educational needs of pharmacists in all practice areas. Beginning in 2019, Texas pharmacists will be required to participate in continuing education related to pain management and prescribing and monitoring of prescription controlled substances.
