CVS stores are now selling some cannabis-based products in eight states, including Alabama, California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland and Tennessee.
The pharmacy chain says the items include topicals such as creams, sprays and lotions.
CVS specified it is not selling any CBD-containing supplements or food additives and all the products comply with applicable laws.
CVS has at least 9,800 stores nationwide and will soon roll out the CBD products in over 800 stores in the eight states.
“We’re going to walk slowly, but this is something we think our customers will be looking for,” CVS Health CEO Larry Merlo told CNBC News.
