About this Service
Clinically reviewed by licensed pharmacistsA urinary tract infection (UTI) causes painful, urgent, and frequent urination and can escalate quickly if left untreated. At Peel Best Pharmacy, our pharmacists are authorized under Ontario's Minor Ailments program to assess symptoms and prescribe antibiotics for uncomplicated UTIs in women aged 16 to 65 — no family doctor visit required.
Our pharmacists review your symptoms in a private consultation, rule out complicating factors, and dispense the appropriate antibiotic on the spot. Most patients are in and out in under 30 minutes — a fraction of the time spent waiting at a clinic or emergency room.
For men, pregnant patients, recurrent infections, or symptoms suggesting a kidney infection (fever, back or flank pain, chills, nausea), a family doctor consultation is recommended. Our onsite family doctors at TDL MD Clinic (Dr. Tony D. Luong, 905-712-3998) and Saldanha Health Centre (Dr. Saldanha, 905-890-8183) are available by appointment — both co-located with Peel Best Pharmacy at 550 Matheson Blvd W, Unit 106, Mississauga.
