30 day limit on prescription refills lifted in most provinces
12 June 2020 - Most Canadian provinces have now eased their restrictions on the supply of prescription drugs.
Ontario is one of the latest provinces to take this measure. Starting Monday, residents will no longer face a 30-day limit on the amount of prescription medication they’re able to receive at once. Ontarians will be able to receive up to 100 days’ worth of medication once again.
Ontario was one of several provinces that imposed limits on the supply of prescription drugs that pharmacies are able to dispense. These restrictions took effect in March, and only allowed pharmacies to hand out 30 days’ worth of medication instead of a usual 90 or 100 days.
