MedsCheck
Original MedsCheck is an annual consultation for patients who are taking three or more prescription medications for a chronic condition. Patients may be eligible for follow-up reviews during the year.

Medication shouldn't be confusing
Managing multiple medications or diabetes is no easy task. With all the different instructions and potential side effects it's hard to know if the medications you take on a daily basis are working as well as they should. There´s a way to make sure you´re getting the most from your medications.
MedsCheck is a program that allows you to schedule a 20 to 30 minute one-to-one meeting with your community pharmacist to ensure that you are safely and appropriately using all types of medication. Think of it as a comprehensive medication review. And it´s free! Just bring your OHIP card. The MedsCheck appointment is your chance to discuss how your prescription, over-the-counter and alternative medications may be affecting each other.
