GreenPharmEdu
In 2010 the Teleosis Institute is partnering with Touro University Nevada to launch the Institute for Environmental Medicine (I4EM). I4EM is now offering an online continuing educational program, GreenPharmEdu, designed to educate health professionals on the rationale, evidence and actions required to reduce unused pharmaceuticals accumulating in the environment.

GreenPharmEdu provides three hours of unique curricula for health professionals. The program is available free of charge and continuing education credits are available for physicians for a fee of $25.



Courses include:

• Rationale for A Focus on Unused Pharmaceutical
• Pharmaceutical In the Environment: An Evidence-based Review
