In Canada we can access pharmacist valuable input to a particular drug anytime we have a prescription filled and with paper backup and oral instruction on possible side effects, included.

Did you make an effort to read Tim's post and my post regarding the Canadian governments concern about older folks being on many medications and so offering a yearly free 30 minute consult with a pharmacist to try and sort out the muti medication pitfalls.

Probably any Canadian family could set up an hour consult with a pharmacist to sort out a senior members muti medications.
No problem just reach in their pocket and pay the pharmacist his hourly rate as you would do in your country..no biggy i think pharmacists in Canada goes for between $60 and $100 per hour.

Before you go off on a tangent, i pay for my own drugs,the government does not pay for my drugs. I was fortunate to work for a company that had a drug plan, which i paid into, and have been early retired going on 13 years and the plan picks up 80 percent.
