Mum3115 5 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Just left the pharmacy, where the pharmacist indicated that Imitrex injections are discontinued in Canada? Does anyone know if that's in fact true? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pebblesthecorgi 500 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 If it is it would be because of cost issues to the national health plan. Canadian online pharmacies still provide to US Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CHfather 1,272 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I don't see any indication from the internet that that is true. There were trex shortages in Canada earlier this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mum3115 5 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Thanks CHfather and Pebblesthecorgi - as it turns out, bad information from the pharmacist (probably due to the trex shortages earlier in the year as per CHfather). We finally tracked some down! Thanks so much! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi - I am very happy to hear that you have tracked some injectable Imitrex in Canada - the Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacist just told me it was discontinued this week London, Ontario. Can you please tell me where you found it? Thanks so much, Amy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
