Mednow Inc. (“Mednow'' or the “Company”) (TSXV:MNOW), Canada’s on-demand virtual pharmacy, launched today in Winnipeg, to serve Manitoba. This Canadian health tech company, founded by pharmacists, offers unlimited virtual pharmacist consults, fast, free medication delivery, and advanced technology to help address medication non-adherence - a problem that can result in the worsening of a patient’s condition, hospitalization or emergency room visits.

“We’re thrilled to serve Manitobans from within Manitoba. This launch is part of our plan to have a national presence across Canada while also serving our patients from where they live. The strategy to have a presence in each province we serve ensures we are able to deliver on our promise of providing a higher level of care, which we believe drives our growth,” said Karim Nassar, CEO, Mednow.

Mednow is focused on improving delivery of pharmacy services in Canada through digitization to provide better patient access to healthcare professionals, and help prevent medication non-adherence.

Mednow’s ~2,500 sq. ft. Winnipeg-based distribution centre and frontline pharmacy is located at 584 St. Mary's Rd. and represents a significant local investment. It is powered by the latest in automated prescription fulfillment and dispensing technology. This newest addition to Mednow’s growing national footprint enables free same day prescription delivery in Winnipeg and many surrounding suburban areas and free two day delivery in rural areas.

“We believe patients have the right to have the same high expectations as consumers. Our goal is to provide better, faster, quality service through the pharmacy of the future,” said Nassar.

The pharmacy that runs to you

With the tap of an app, or a click in a browser, Mednow patients, such as busy parents juggling multiple prescriptions, caregivers, and seniors, can interact with pharmacists for things like medical reviews, care plans and consultations, and order prescribed and over-the-counter medications for fast, free delivery. Patients can also easily view their full medication history and receive automatic prescription refills.

Mednow’s PillSmart™ makes daily medications and supplements easy to take and hard to forget. PillSmart safely packages medications into easy to open individual packs, each printed with the contents, date and time of the next dose. This ensures patients don’t forget their important mediations and supplements and eliminates accidental double-dosing. Mednow also offers Karie, an automatic medication dispenser that organizes, schedules, and delivers medication with the touch of a button.
