In Canada, a newcomer can be an immigrant, refugee, or temporary resident such as a student, who recently moved from their home country to Canada, usually within the last 5 years.

Rexall Pharmacists can assess your health and prescribe medications for various common medical conditions known as "minor illnesses".
Minor illnesses are common health conditions that are short-term, require minimal treatment and don’t require lab tests, such as uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), allergies, and heartburn.
Visit our prescribing page to learn more about the minor illnesses we can assess and prescribe* for and book an appointment.
*Prescribing capabilities vary per province. Consult with your Rexall Pharmacist.

Rexall Pharmacists can help newcomers with prescription management. This includes renewing or extending chronic medications, changing dosages or formulations, as well as assessing and writing new prescriptions for certain conditions in some provinces.
Our pharmacists can also help newcomers find similar medications in Canada to what they were taking in their home country, and in some cases, prescribe alternatives.
Speak to your Pharmacist to learn more.
