Essential Oil therapy

Hello all, I am interested in learning more about the status of essential oils in your organizations. Would you please consider responding to the following questions: 1. Has essential oil therapy been considered for use within the organization? 2. Has your Pharmacy & Therapeutics Committee reviewed essential oil therapy? If so, what decision was made? 3. If essential oil therapy is permitted, what processes do you have in place for pharmacy (eg, purchasing, storage)? Any additional information regarding the use or non-use of essential oils in your organization would be greatly helpful. Many thanks, Michael O'Connor, PharmD, MS, FISMP Medication Safety Coordinator Intermountain Healthcare mchael.o'connor@imail.org
