When you&#8217;re sick or if you can&#8217;t get in touch with your family doctor for a prescription refill, doctors and nurse practitioners on Maple can prescribe most medications online with the exception of controlled medications such as narcotics.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can speak with a doctor or nurse practitioner from the comfort of your home, get a prescription online, and pick up your prescription at a local pharmacy or choose free delivery so you can simply focus on recovery.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6>How can I get a prescription online?<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>You can use Maple for an online prescription consultation. Prescriptions are given at the doctor or nurse practitioner&#8217;s discretion. Once received, you&#8217;ll send your prescription to the pharmacy of your choice where you&#8217;ll be notified through the Maple app when it&#8217;s ready for pickup or have it delivered to your door at no additional cost. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6>What kinds of medications can online doctors prescribe?<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Doctors can prescribe<a href=\"https:\/\/www.getmaple.ca\/medications\/\"> most medications<\/a> as needed.

A doctor is trained to prescribe medication that&#8217;s safe and effective based on your condition, medical history, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that with Maple, you can see a doctor or nurse practitioner online in Canada for a prescription when you&#8217;re sick or renew your prescription online.

Similar to in-person visits, you&#8217;ll have a consultation with the doctor, and they&#8217;ll determine whether they can give you a prescription.
