Are you an active member of the Canadian Forces (CF), including reservists on duty?

Yes

If yes, you are likely eligible for the medication benefits provided through the CF Health Services Program which covers all health care services for members, including medications.

The program has a formulary that specifies which medicines are covered and under what circumstances. The formulary is not available publicly, but it is possible to search an online database to identify if the medication you need is listed. The formulary is restricted to a relatively small number of approved treatments, but if you need a medication that is not listed, your prescriber can submit a written request that includes the specific medical reasons you need this medication even though it is not listed. The written request will be reviewed, and a decision made about whether or not it would be covered for you.

For more information about coverage, please see the CAF Drug Benefits website.
