Medications that have already been dispensed and shipped out cannot be returned to inventory under Canadian law. The dispensing pharmacy is also required to destroy any previously dispensed medications, so all sales are final.

We can cancel your first fill on a prescription as long as you contact us within 24 hours of the prescription being received. We cannot cancel refill orders as they are processed almost immediately and are usually shipped out within hours of receiving the order. Additionally it is illegal for the medication to be reused once it has left our pharmacy.
Since insurance is different in each country, we are unable to work directly with your company. If you work with a private insurance company you can reach out to them and ask them whether they will reimburse you for prescriptions filled through Sunshine Pharmacy. We will always issue a receipt for each order which you can submit to your insurance company for payment. They may or may not reimburse you for these payments. This is something you will have to clarify with them.
Privacy is very important to us. We make sure to pay close attention to the security and privacy of your information. All online orders and communication are processed using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL version 3.0 or higher) and secured by a true VeriSign SSL Certificate.

The maximum time frame for all shipping is 4 weeks from the date of shipment.

In short, there is not a lot of difference. Generic medications contain the same active ingredients and concentrations as the name brand medications. The difference is usually in the colour, markings, shape and size of the pill and in the non-active filler ingredients.
Sunshine Pharmacy provides the high-quality name brand and generic medications to you that we do to our own community. When you choose a generic equivalent you are not sacrificing quality; you are simply choosing to save on a product that has the same effects as the brand name equivalent.
The packaging as well as the medication itself may look different because it was manufactured to be sold in Canada. However, Brand products are manufactured with the same formulation for all countries. Generic medications contain the same active ingredients and concentrations as the name-brand products, but can differ in shape, color, size, markings and non-active fillers.
The current pharmacy regulations require that we dispense medications in a child-safe container. If you would like to get your medication without a child resistant container you will need to submit a written request form which you can download here. Once you download the form, print it off, fill it out, and sign. Send the completed form back via email, fax, or regular mail and we will add it to your account.
Electronic Funds Transfer, or EFT, allows us to get payment from you electronically instead of mailing a paper check. EFT payments are advantageous because it takes less time for us to receive your payment as opposed to a paper check. We also don’t have to wait for it to come in the mail and risk it getting lost in transit. (Read more here)
