CPhA Welcomes NDP Commitment to Improve Prescription Drug Access and Affordability for Canadians
The Canadian Pharmacists Association (CPhA) welcomes today’s announcement by the NDP to make prescription drugs more affordable and accessible for Canadians. We’re encouraged that prescription drug access is being raised during this election campaign. However, a sustainable and affordable pan-Canadian drug plan cannot be achieved through addressing drug prices alone, we must also look at enhanced utilization and drug therapy and this is where pharmacists can and must play a key role.
