MedsCheck is an annual medication review program funded by the Ontario government for qualifying patients. At your MedsCheck appointment, your pharmacist conducts a private, one-on-one review of every medication you take — prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and supplements. The pharmacist checks for potential drug interactions, duplicate therapies, incorrect dosing, and medications that may no longer be necessary. You receive a printed medication record and action plan. MedsCheck is also available for residents of long-term care facilities (MedsCheck Long-Term Care) and patients recently discharged from hospital (MedsCheck at Home). Please call our pharmacy today at (905) 712-0003 to see if you are eligible and book your appointment.
