Brief Summary

The objective of this survey will be to evaluate the perception by the students (except for medical students, pharmacies) of community pharmacists concerning the management of cannabis consumption. We want to see if the student population perceives the pharmacist as the public health actor of choice, and if they would more easily turn to him or to another health professional (doctor, nurse) in case they need. Discussing possible problematic consumption or for a simple search for information.
