What do you mean Ontario is out of 6-mp? How can an entire city (if you'r located in California) or province be out of a drug?

I am in Ottawa too and I heard the same thing when I was in the hospital for surgery. It's not only Ontario. Most of Canada has a dangerously low supply. Did you try some of the outlying areas as well? What about Watsons pharmacy and Compounding?

Hope you can find some!

Good luck.

Can't your doctors prescribe Imuran instead if 6mp isn't available?
