Indigicare Medicines offers access to many Over the Counter items that are 100% covered by Status Health Benefits without a prescription.
No Rx is required for these items (free of charge) for folks with status health benefits. People can visit us, show their status card or Pharmacare Plan W card and access what they need.
Other health benefit plans, might cover some of these Over the Counter items if they get a prescription from a Physician or NP.
If people do not have health benefit coverage and are paying out of pocket, our OTC items are much cheaper than drug stores!
Indigicare Medicines is an Indigenous-owned pharmacy that offers a unique approach to care. We weave together Indigenous traditional knowledge and healing practices with Western medicine to create a culturally safe and respectful space where everyone, especially our Indigenous community, is supported and cared for.
This ground-breaking pharmacy was created with the community’s guidance. Over several years, we listened, learned, and worked with over 300 people—including Elders, Indigenous doctors, and holistic healers—to understand what a safe and welcoming Indigenous pharmacy should be. Our services and operations will continue to grow and adapt to meet the community’s needs.
Indigicare Medicines is the result of this shared vision—a place that honours Indigenous traditions and addresses your health care needs
