SHOPPERS DRUG MART Locations

I use Shoppers Drug Mart in Kensington and why I have not already moved to a different pharmacy is beyond me. Maybe I secretly love the drama and need something to complain about? My latest adventure there was: I went in to pick up my meds after I got an alert they were ready. I had one drug change, I ask to look at it and sure enough they had filled the wrong one (doc had written for Eltroxin and told me to make sure they give me Eltroxin and not Synthroid which I have been taking). They filled Synthroid. - and that was **AFTER** I had phoned the day before, spoke to a pharmacist and told them to make sure they gave me Eltroxin. There was another drug that was new to me, a nasal spray whi...

I went to the Shoppers Drug Mart Keewatin branch to pick up my son's prescription. He’s battling a rare and aggressive cancer, and the pain he’s experiencing is beyond words. Around 5 PM, I got a call confirming the medication was ready—it just needed final verification by the pharmacist. I asked if I could wait for it instead of coming back the next morning at 8 AM. I explained my son's condition and hoped for some compassion. The pharmacist on duty, told me they were too busy and refused to make an exception. I was heartbroken. This wasn’t a casual request—it was a desperate need for relief. I understand pharmacies are under pressure, but I believe patients in critica...

How your store management deals with the $10 bonus cards if they run out? I have seen different things at different stores where some stores hand out manual $10 vouchers and some just say its “ while quantities last” (which makes sense) so they don’t give out anything and that leaves customers furious. So are the $10 mandatory to give to customers or it just depends store-store?

I have a question for all Shoppers Drug Mart old timer store level employees. I know Shoppers used to be a public company and years ago went private about a decade ago. I work for Walgreens Pharmacy in the US and as of today we went from being a public company to private and our new CEO came from Shoppers from a while back (Mike Motz). Do you have any notable takeaways or things that changed for you when you went private? As far as changes in pay, benefits, labor hours/help in the store, metrics, store closures (or openings), or any additional changes that occured whether good or bad after going private equity or experience working under Motz? I think we are the first chain-pharmacy...

Pills with dosage 10 times higher than prescribed supplied to girl at Shoppers Drug Mart: parents

I normally don't like non-animal plushies but look at these three! Brand is DanDee. I found them at a Canadian pharmacy chain, Shoppers Drug Mart

Hi everyone! I had a lot of people reach out to me about sharing my quad therapy schedule, which I got after some trail and error, so figured I will share to everyone here. So many of us received such minimal guidance from healthcare systems, so I’m here to share what I’ve been learned through persistence and annoying multiple doctors and pharmacists lol. This by no means is medical advice, just what worked for me, and I hope it can help you. I finished the 14 day treatment last week, it was awful but I got out of it alive thanks to some drastic changes I made after ending up in the ER on day 4. I was on tetracycline (2 pills, 4 times a day) , metronidazole (1 pill, 3 times a day), pan...

Desperately searching for injectable testosterone in Ottawa. Shoppers drug mart is back ordered and they can’t order more there isn’t any available. So I literally need to call as many pharmacies as I can to try and find a place with some in stock. I’ve called 7 pharmacies so far and no luck. Anyone have any suggestions or know somewhere that has a stock of it?

Hey friends. Wanted to make a post about this in case anyone else was having this issue. This morning my usual pharmacy called me to tell me the testosterone cypionate I’d been able to get from them for the past couple of years is suddenly unavailable. He claimed it wasn’t a supply issue but a manufacturer issue? And that I needed to find a new pharmacy and he’d help me move my prescription over. I thought it was odd but called Shoppers drug mart anyway. They can’t either. I called walmart. They also don’t have any available for the foreseeable future. I’ve been calling places all morning and I think I found somewhere who can at a smaller pharmacy after recommendation (I’m wai...

Today I went to the pharmacy in the Shoppers Drug mart on Southglen to get some Plan B. The pill has been free since April 1st of this year. When I asked the clerk for it she rang me up for $40. When I asked why she was charging me she said “you need a consultation with the pharmacist to get it for free, but it’ll be a while” and it sounded like she was discouraging me to take that route. I said that’s fine I’d like it to be free so I’ll do the consultation. The Pharmacist says to me “Just sit I’m doing something”. That’s fine. I wait 20 minutes, and after no consultation I get called up by a different clerk who says it’ll be $10. I asked why and the pharmacist approach...

What stores in Cornwall do you think would benefit from having longer opening hours? For example, do you think if Walmart was open until midnight it would benefit? Do you think if the Shoppers Drug Marts were open until 12 people would go? Asking out of curiosity. Sometimes, I wish there was a pharmacy or grocery store open late at night, so curious what other people think.

I called around to compare prices and these are the results for the beginning Wegovy pen (0.25): Shoppers Drug Mart - $485 Costco Pharmacy - $422.35 Rexall Pharmacy - $474 Pharmasave - $480ish (literally what they said on the phone) Walmart - $428.02 Just sharing my work in case it helps anyone else in Ontario :)

Why is a 4mg pen the same price as a 2mg pen? I went to the pharmacy and they tried to give me 2 pens, each pen was $277. I took the 4mg pen and left the 2mg pen because why am I paying that much for less medication? I'm located in Ontario, Canada and this was a Shoppers Drug Mart.

Hi all, I just got my second kwikpen and the cost is just not sustainable. I am on 12.5, in Ontario. I had been using vials til relatively recently. I got the MyMounjaro coupon but I never used it, my understanding is you need to be diabetic to actually use this, not sure if Shoppers Drug Mart will accept it. Has anyone had success using the coupon from MyMounjaro at a Shoppers or another pharmacy without them asking if you have T2D? Honestly it's all very irritating to me. I have PCOS and kept my A1C in check for years with metformin and strict, strict dieting. It feels like if I had been more reckless with my health for the last 15 years I would have this medication for free. I was ...
