All Calgary Co-op pharmacies have prescribing pharmacists (those with additional prescribing authority from the Alberta College of Pharmacy). Our pharmacists can assess you and prescribe for:

  • minor ailments (cold sores, seasonal allergies, etc.)
  • pre-existing and previously diagnosed conditions or
  • vaccines and injections

Narcotics, controlled drugs or medication required outside of minor ailments cannot be prescribed by our pharmacists. Please see your doctor for these health care needs.
