Most often these conditions can be treated on your own with the support of a pharmacist and may not require a visit to a doctor for treatment. For some minor health issues, your Pharmasave pharmacist can assess your symptoms and, if needed, prescribe a prescription treatment if there are no suitable over-the-counter options for you.
