Availability of Promethazine OTC in Ontario, Canada

[benzowned]

Hello Bluelight!


Long time lurker, first time poster.

The title says it all.
Went over to Shopper's today, pharmacist told me it is available OTC but that they don't stock it, and advised me to try another pharmacy.
Any ideas in your experience on where I can find this, before I start driving all over town?

Thanks in advance, and mods, my apologies if this should be in NSADD.

I'll move it over to the appropriate regional discussion forum for ya

No problem

Look up local pharmacies and other stores that you think may carry promethazine and then call them to ask if they have it in stock. This way you do not have to drive anywhere, except to go buy it. And if it is OTC in Canada, shouldn't you be able to legally order it online? You could also ask the pharmacist if they would order you some.

Yeah, you're absolutely right.
So used to buying OTC products in person, didn't even consider this obvious fact...

Probably cheaper online too.
I'll give it a shot, thanks.

Looks like this problem is pretty much solved, or at least answered. I'm gonna close this thread. Benzowned- feel free to PM me if you think this should be re-opened for whatever reason.
