Prescription transfers
Transfer your prescription in one call.
Murray Shore Pharmacy transfers your prescription from any pharmacy in North York in one call. You do one thing. We do everything else: contacting your current pharmacy, moving your prescriptions, and setting up refills and delivery.
Your to-do list, and ours.
We do
- Contact your current pharmacy We make the call, pharmacy to pharmacy. It is a routine request they handle every day.
- Move every prescription over Active prescriptions and remaining refills come across to our dispensary.
- Check interactions and insurance A pharmacist reviews your full medication list with you, and we set up direct billing to your plan.
- Set up refills or blister packs Routine refills, or a month of doses sorted by day and time, whatever suits you.
- Arrange free delivery To your door across North York and Thornhill, at no charge, if you prefer not to come in.

Things people wonder about
Will my old pharmacy be told? Is it awkward?
We contact them, not you. Pharmacies transfer prescriptions for each other every day; it is a routine professional request, and you never need to have the conversation yourself.
Does it cost anything?
No. Transferring your prescriptions to Murray Shore is free. Prescription delivery is free too, and blister packing often costs nothing extra — ask us about your plan.
Can every medication be transferred?
Most can. Some controlled medications cannot be transferred and need a new prescription from your doctor instead. If that applies to anything you take, we tell you on the first call and help arrange the new prescription.
Does my insurance carry over?
Yes. Your drug coverage belongs to you, not to a pharmacy. Give us your benefits information once and we bill most plans directly from then on.
Can I transfer prescriptions for a parent?
Yes, caregivers arrange this often. With your parent’s permission, we take it from there: their prescriptions, refills, blister packs, and delivery, all managed through one number you can call.
What if I only want some prescriptions moved?
That is fine. Tell us which ones to move and we transfer only those. You can move the rest later, or not at all; it is entirely your choice.
Your pharmacist is one call away.
