Rexall has launched a new weight management program that offers Canadians access to physician-led care, virtual consultations and home delivery of prescription medications.
The pharmacy retailer said the program is designed to provide patients with personalized care plans and ongoing support without requiring in-person visits, as part of a broader effort to expand access to healthcare services.
The initiative combines physician assessments, pharmacist support and lifestyle guidance, with patients beginning the process through a comprehensive health evaluation conducted by a partnered doctor. Based on the results, physicians develop individualized treatment plans that may include lab testing, such as blood work, and options to address weight and related health conditions.
“Rexall’s Weight Management Program is about more than just a number on a scale,” said Jeff Boutilier, Chief Operating Officer, Rexall Pharmacy Group. “Our Weight Management Program is about helping someone achieve their best health outcome using safe and clinically supported solutions. We are grateful to be able to partner with trusted physicians and dietitians to help people take meaningful, sustainable steps toward better health.”
Participants in the program are offered ongoing virtual consultations with physicians, access to Rexall pharmacists and free health coaching sessions led by registered dietitians. The company said these services are intended to provide guidance on nutrition, lifestyle changes and long-term wellness strategies.
Rexall said the program integrates pharmacist expertise with physician-led care and in-store clinical services, allowing patients to access additional testing through its Pharmacist Care Clinics. These services include body composition analysis aimed at tracking health changes beyond weight alone.
The company also said patients may benefit from partner offerings such as digital health tools and fitness support as part of the program.
The program includes options for virtual care and prescription delivery, including the delivery of GLP-1 medications, allowing patients to complete the process from home. Individuals can begin by booking a free introductory consultation, followed by registration and a virtual appointment with a physician.
Rexall said the launch reflects its focus on expanding access to healthcare services and offering more convenient options for Canadians seeking support in managing their health.
