Can Americans have their prescriptions filled by Canadian pharmacists?
Canadian pharmacists can only fill prescriptions that have been written by a professional licensed to prescribe in Canada. Therefore, prescriptions written by American doctors cannot be filled legally by Canadian pharmacists. Most importantly, it is extremely important to always go to one pharmacy so your pharmacist is aware of all medications you are taking – prescription, over-the-counter and herbal – and your overall health. This is the best way to ensure the best outcome from any and all medications you may take.
