Canadian family pharmacies stock a wide range of commonly prescribed medications. You’ll easily find treatments for various conditions.
For instance, medications for managing high blood pressure, like Lisinopril or Ramipril, are readily available. Similarly, statins such as Atorvastatin or Simvastatin, used to lower cholesterol, are commonly stocked.
Diabetes management is also well-covered. You can expect to find Metformin, Glipizide, and other oral hypoglycemics, as well as insulin products upon prescription.
For allergies, antihistamines such as Cetirizine or Fexofenadine are usually available. Pharmacies also carry inhalers and other medications for asthma and other respiratory conditions.
Pain relief options are extensive, ranging from over-the-counter analgesics to prescription opioids (under strict regulations). Commonly prescribed painkillers include acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and naproxen.
Mental health medications are another significant category. Antidepressants such as Sertraline or Citalopram and anti-anxiety medications like Lorazepam or Diazepam are dispensed following a doctor’s prescription.
Beyond these examples, pharmacies carry numerous other prescription drugs, including antibiotics, medications for gastrointestinal issues, and thyroid medications. Always confirm availability with your local pharmacy.
