Part of the UT Health San Antonio.
With the ever-increasing market of herbal and alternative medications, today’s dental practitioner must be ready not only to recognize what these medications are, but what their impact is on medications that we may choose to prescribe for our patients. In addition, an understanding of the potential interactions and side effects of these alternative medications may be helpful in light of the steadily increasing use of these products. Particular emphasis will be on the use, side effects, and interactions these products have not only on the more frequently prescribed dental medications, but also on some of the more frequently prescribed medications our patients may be on.
It is the policy of the UT Health San Antonio Office of Continuing Dental Education to ensure balance, independence, objectivity and scientific rigor in all of its sponsored educational activities. All participating speakers, course directors, and planning committee members are required to disclose to the program audience any financial relationships related to the subject matter of this program. Relationships of spouse/partner with proprietary entities producing health care goods or services should be disclosed if they are of a nature that may influence the objectivity of the individual in a position to control the content of the CDE activity. Disclosure information is reviewed in advance in order to manage and resolve any possible conflicts of interest. Specific disclosure information for each speaker, course director, and planning committee member will be shared with the audience prior to the speaker’s presentation.
Continuing Dental Education Staff members have nothing to disclose.
