Compliance Packaging

Forgetting something? Managing your medications.

Have you ever missed a dose of your prescription medication? Have you ever taken less or more of your medication than prescribed by your doctor? If you answered yes to one or both of these questions, you are not alone. Studies have shown that as many as 50% of Canadians do not take their medications properly.

Not taking your medications exactly as prescribed can have a negative impact on your health. Examples include not filling your prescription or refill, missing a dose, taking your medication at the wrong time, taking too much or too little, or stopping your medication earlier than prescribed.

Switching to a compliance packaging allows us to pre-package your medications by day of the week and time of day so you don’t have to. It is easy to use, organized and leads to better health outcomes.

Talk to one of your Costco Pharmacists to see if switching to a compliance package is right for you.
