Verify the pharmacy’s license and registration with your provincial regulatory body. Check for a physical address and contact information; avoid solely online vendors with no traceable location.
Confirming Product Legitimacy
- Inspect the packaging carefully. Look for clear labeling with the manufacturer’s information, accurate dosage, and expiry date. Report inconsistencies immediately. Check for tamper-evident seals. These seals help protect against counterfeiting and indicate an unopened product. Compare the medication’s appearance to images of authentic Cafergot found on reputable pharmaceutical websites. Note color, shape, and markings.
Protecting Your Health
Only purchase Cafergot from licensed pharmacies. Avoid purchasing from unauthorized online sources or individuals.
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting or changing any medication. Report any suspicious activity or counterfeit medications to Health Canada. Store your medication as directed on the label to maintain its effectiveness and safety.

Understanding Your Rights
Know your rights as a patient. You deserve safe, effective medication. Do not hesitate to seek clarification from your healthcare providers if you have questions or concerns about authenticity.
