2011/2012 Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Program
As we have in the past years, we are again participating in Alberta Health’s Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Program. You can receive your influenza vaccination. This vaccination is NO CHARGE to all Albertans and is administered in our pharmacy Tuesdays and Thursdays between 2pm and 5pm. No appointment is necessary for this vaccination but you must have a valid Alberta Personal Healthcare Card.
Vaccination Appointments Tuesday & Thursday: 2:00pm to 5:00pm
Please call (403) 320-6500 to arrange an appointment to receive your vaccination. Most vaccinations require some preparation time and may require you to remain at the pharmacy for 20min for observation. Please ask when making the appointment. Vaccinations include but are not limited to TwinRx, HaviRx, Zostavax, Gardasil and more. (Please note the above listed immunizations require a prescription from your doctor)
Note: We are certified to provide other medications by injection such as Vitamin B12, Eprex, Aranesp, Innohep, and many more.
There is a $15 fee for this service.
Many insurance plans will include coverage for services which can include those services provided by a pharmacist. Our pharmacists are certified to provide this service as required by the Alberta College of Pharmacists. In addition, the payment of pharmacist professional services are recognized by the Canada Revenue Agency to be included as an allowed medical expense. For clarification please consult your tax consultant or the Canada Revenue Agency directly. In the meantime, hang on to those receipts from your pharmacy.
