Due to the busy-ness of the new school year, we WILL NOT be answering phones between 12pm-1pm or AFTER 4:30pm. Please feel free to use THIS WEBSITE for refills (you will need your prescription number) or THE APP for refills. Please allow us 1-2 business days to prepare your prescription refills.
Remember to use the TRANSFER QUESTIONNAIRE in the tab above if you would like us to transfer your prescriptions from another pharmacy to us. Ensure you have refills to transfer – if you DO NOT HAVE REFILLS, please contact your MD office to fax us a new script (or else this will further delay your prescription). Please give us at least 2-3 business days to have transfers prepared.
For those who are new to Carleton University, if you have questions about OHIP+ please refer to the tab that discusses information about the provincial plan and eligibility.
If you are a new patient with us, any prescriptions we receive will be put on hold for you. Please present yourself with your drug insurance information (this can include a picture of the front and back of the drug insurance card) so we can complete your profile and prepare your prescription.
If you have questions about your UNDERGRADUATE DRUG PLAN please contact CUSA. If you have questions about your GRADUATE DRUG PLAN please contact GSA.
We will be closed for Canada Day!
July 1, 2025
The pharmacy will be closed Tuesday July 1st, re-opening on Wednesday July 2nd. Please ensure you have enough medication over that period of time or have your home pharmacy call us to get medications transferred before Monday Jun 30th at 4:30p.
We are closed on holidays and over the Christmas break. Dates will be posted accordingly.
COVID-19 & Flu Vaccines
The Prescription Shop DOES NOT offer COVID-19 vaccines. If you are staff, faculty or a student, you may sign up for the COVID or flu vaccine through Health Services (they usually will post clinic days). For everyone else, please refer to the provincial COVID website.
COVID-19 Testing
Please be advised that our pharmacy DOES NOT provided COVID-19 testing.
As the pharmacist and owner, I feel strongly that pharmacy based testing introduces unnecessary health risk to the patients who rely on the essential dispensary services our pharmacy provides.
Regards, Brian Stowe. Pharmacist and Owner.
The overriding purpose of our pharmacy is to support the health care needs of our university community. Our staff have a strong understanding of the health issues faced by students, and a depth of knowledge and experience to draw on to support them during their studies at Carleton.
