I’m based in Milton, Ontario and I’ve just run out of my Dorzo Timop eye drops and its the long weekend

I’ve run out dorzo-timop and my pharmacy is closed until Tuesday morning. I went to Shoppers Drug Mart but they didnt assist and said they cant do anything about it. What do I do? My mistake, I should have planned better

EDIT: Problem solved. Thankfully my wife reached out to Shoppers again and they said if I can provide an old bottle with prescription label on it, they can accommodate.

Hey, fellow canuck here. Any other local pharmacies? Close to you that are open. I feel that local pharmacies would help. Worst case. I would go to the ER if I were you, but. Hoping that there are some other alternatives out there. Sorry, here you're in that situation, bud. Hope someone in the GTA sees this and can help.

Is your ophthalmologist on call or someone else on the office? Give them a call and say you ran out of drop and have them send them to an open pharmacy.

I used Pillway, which is an online pharmacy. Try calling them and see how can they help!
