Dukoral and Vancouver Island, BC

Hi All

I know there have been plenty of discussions about the Dukoral Vaccine and going to Canada. My wife and I are planning a 4 day trip to Seattle and Vancouver Island. I figure since I am there...... Anybody out there that has bought the vaccine on the island and any pharmacy recommendations? Should I pick a place or 2 before I go and call ahead about availability?

Thanks for everyone's time and hopefully help!

Hello,

I live in British Columbia. I'm not sure if you can get Dukoral without a physician's prescription. If you can, try either London Drugs or Shopper's Drug Mart. They are found everywhere on the Island.

I went to Vancouver BC in November and got Dukoral at the COSTCO store, they all have it as do the Walmart Pharmacies. No prescription needed. Costco in Canada does not accept Visa debit or credit cards, only MasterCard, FYI.

Good to know. I believe the island has WalMarts. Thanks for taking the time to reply!

I was just looking at your last post. How long have you been on ADT vacation and how is it going?

I stopped the aberiterone acetate (Zytiga) in April '18 after 3 months. My last Lupron shot (4 month version) was also April '18. So the Lupron lasted until August '18. My PSA has been undetectable since March of '18. Since I did not have surgery I have some PSA showing, last three months its been 0.09. So I'm coming up on one year of NED next month. I'm eating healthier and exercising more too so my journey is good now. With the one met now in doubt (my MO actually lists it as probably benign) I feel that I was probably over diagnosed and over treated with the ADT and I hope never to have to return to ADT therapy.

Be well and have a nice vacation in Canada.
