Ibuprofen gel availability in Canada?

Question

When I was in the UK last year I found a product called Nuprofen which I found worked well for sore muscles. I like the fact that it works almost immediately rather than waiting to ingest a pill.

Can you get this or something comparable over the counter in Canada??

Answer 1

Ibuprofen gel is available in Canada, but only by prescription.  A lot of insurances don't cover it either, so you may want to check the price before you buy the prescription.
