Public Advisory: NLPDP Online System Restored
The Department of Health and Community Services wishes to advise the
public that the online system for the Newfoundland and Labrador
Prescription Drug Program (NLPDP) has been restored. An electrical
outage occurred yesterday and as a result, pharmacies were unable to
access the NLPDP online system.
Residents who have a NLPDP drug card and require prescriptions are
advised to visit their pharmacy to have their prescriptions filled.
For further information, please contact the NLPDP office at
1-888-859-3535.
The Department of Health and Community Services apologizes for any
inconvenience this unexpected interruption may have caused.
