Ontario is giving pharmacists more prescription powers as part of its new budget.
The government will be giving pharmacists prescribing powers for treating mild to moderate acne, canker sores, diaper rash, yeast infections, and nausea and vomiting in pregnancy.
The Ontario College of Pharmacists says the government has also asked it to explore adding even more maladies to the list and to prepare recommendations for this fall.
