DCRx is a DC Department of Health initiative created to provide free, evidence-based, and non-biased education for medical professionals across the District. Our mission is to support safe, high-quality prescribing and improve the health of DC communities by offering timely information on medications, therapeutic options, and best practices—fully independent of commercial influence.

This work aligns with the Mayor’s priority to strengthen healthcare quality, advance health equity, and ensure that clinicians across DC have access to the tools they need to deliver the best possible care. All courses on this platform are free to learners, offer accredited continuing education, and are designed to meet the evolving needs of our healthcare workforce.

We are glad you’re here, and we hope these learning experiences enrich your practice and support better outcomes for the patients and communities you serve.

Important Notice Regarding Continuing Education Certificates for DC Licensure Renewal:

Learners using DCRx courses to satisfy continuing education requirements for District of Columbia licensure renewal should review their learner transcript before enrolling in a course.

Please note that certificates are issued only once for each completed course, using the original course completion date. If you have previously completed a course, you may not retake that same course and receive a new certificate for use in a subsequent licensure renewal cycle.

To determine whether you have already completed a course, please review your learner transcript under My Account → My Activities

Questions regarding whether a course may be applied toward a current renewal period should be directed to the DC Board of Pharmacy at dcbop@dc.gov.
