Medications and Drug Plans

Medications are more than the drugs a doctor prescribes. They include over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and minerals and natural health products. Safe medication use is vital: up to 40% of all medications are taken incorrectly. Talk to your doctor and your pharmacist about any questions you may have about prescriptions, natural medications and sign up for an information session on safe medication use in your community.   When you are Age 65 There is assistance with the cost of eligible prescription drugs and certain other medical supplies ordered by physicians and other health care professionals.
