Dispensing Fees

So here I am trying to get  cheap car insurance quotes when i found out today that there were dispensing fees for every prescription that i fill or refill.  And it’s not cheap either!  how do one afford medication in Canada – every bottle of medication you get at the pharmacy – you pay between $9 – 10.50 and it’s every bottle i am talking about!  We never had to pay dispensing fees back home – so this comes as a real shock to me.

Being diabetic, i take a lot of medication every month – and i was happy about refilling my medication every time  - and didn’t know about this dispensing fees until someone at the car insurance place was chatting about it and that was how i came to know.  I tried to find out if i can refill the entire years medication – and be only charged once – to find out that it doesn’t work this way.  Mannn!!  this is expensive – no wonder the pharmacy i get my medication from – has so many employees because even if they pay their pharmacist – $20/hr that would only be for 2 prescriptions  and the amount of medication that goes out that door ! wow!!  I think i better make sure Missy Moo is in this profession instead of any others.
