Prescription Medicine
Both of our Naturopathic Doctors, Dr Clayton Bostock and Dr. Taylor Bean, have their prescription authority.
As a result of almost 60% of British Columbians having difficulty accessing a Medical Doctor for new concerns or for continuous care, Naturopathic Doctors have been given prescription authority as a result of this concern. ND's have comparable education around pharmaceutical prescribing and have therefore been given access to the more common pharmaceutical prescription British Columbians need.
Common Prescriptions our ND's may utilize
- Blood pressure medication
- Blood sugar regulation
- Thyroid medication
- Anti-depressants
- Sleep support
- Antibiotics: both oral and topically
- Anti-fungals
- Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT)
- Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)
- Oral Vitamin K (for new borns)
