Programme Alerte – Ordre des pharmaciens du Québec (OPQ) [Alert program – Ordre des pharmaciens du Québec (OPQ)]

The Ordre des pharmaciens du Québec (OPQ) created the Programme Alerte [Alert program] to counter prescription drug abuse by preventing people from obtaining medications from multiple prescribing physicians and pharmacists or using forged or altered prescriptions. The program helps patients and health professionals by encouraging appropriate medication use.
