canadian pharmacy pricing was well below the american equivalent in every comparison members have made in here

hold till march

update from 9 months ago: my province still does not cover it and my plan started to, partially, thats one data point

YV

how do people insulate against cold rather than against heat

YV

nobody here can tell you what your plan covers. plans differ inside the same province, never mind between them

RR

anyone in the territories, does anything arrive at all
coverage in canada is provincial and it is a patchwork. what a member in one province reported has almost never matched another

the difference between a diabetes diagnosis and a weight indication was the whole story in every province i read about

reported by members, own currency, not comparable directly
  private clinic, UK      145 - 220
  statutory, DE            10 co-pay
  private script, DE      180 - 240
  pharmacy, PL             95 - 140
  pharmacy, SE            210 - 260

the border question comes up a lot and nobody here will tell you what to declare. that gets stopped quickly

coming back after 24 months, has any province changed its position

a frozen and thawed reconstituted vial is the one thing i would not use, and i cannot point you at a study for that

TT

private plans vary by employer more than by province. two members with the same job title got different answers

FT

a lyophilised vial that froze in transit is almost certainly fine. a reconstituted one that froze is a different matter

*that should say weekly

TT

i keep six weeks of stock going into winter rather than four, and that came out of one bad february

YV

what does a month cost in canadian dollars at a pharmacy
