Get antibiotics from a virtual walk-in clinic in British Columbia: 24/7 prescription service
Around 13% of the British Columbia population (700,000 residents) lack a family doctor. Nearly half of the British Columbian adults have to wait over a week to see their doctor, and only 1 in 10 can be seen within a day or two. These delays force patients to rely on walk-in clinics, which have the longest waits (~93 minutes on average) in BC. BC’s population in rural areas and places like Vancouver Island face acute doctor shortages as physician recruitment is difficult.
Virtual clinics help fill the gap for issues like possible infections, where timely treatment is essential. Your Doctors Online has been providing comprehensive antibiotic care services since 2015. From consultation and lab test recommendations to sending appropriate antibiotic prescriptions to your local pharmacy, we do everything online.

Frequently asked questions
Is it legal and safe to get antibiotics online in British Columbia?
Yes. Your Doctors Online is an authorized telehealth provider, and we follow proper clinical guidelines. Only licensed physicians can prescribe antibiotics and send electronically signed prescriptions to a registered pharmacy through a safe and legal digital process. We recommend avoiding websites that offer antibiotics without a consultation, as these are not legal or medically safe in British Columbia.
Can you buy Amoxicillin over the counter in British Columbia?
No. You cannot buy Amoxicillin or other antibiotics over the counter anywhere in British Columbia. Antibiotics are prescription-only medications. Only a licensed doctor or authorized pharmacist can assess your condition and issue a valid antibiotic prescription. This helps protect against overuse and ensures you receive the proper treatment. Get your online Amoxicillin prescription today!
How to get an antibiotic online?
You can get an antibiotic online in British Columbia by starting a virtual consultation with Your Doctors Online. After describing your symptoms, a licensed doctor will review your case. If antibiotics are appropriate, the prescription is sent instantly to your preferred pharmacy for same-day pickup.
What antibiotic kills all infections?
There is no single antibiotic that kills all infections. Different bacterial infections require different antibiotics, such as Amoxicillin for strep throat, Nitrofurantoin for UTIs, or Doxycycline for Chlamydia. Our doctors carefully choose the most effective medication for your specific condition, following Canadian clinical guidelines.
What can I take instead of Amoxicillin?
If you are allergic to Amoxicillin or it isn’t the best option for your infection, doctors may prescribe alternatives such as Azithromycin, Doxycycline, or Clindamycin, depending on the infection. The choice always depends on your medical history and the type of bacteria causing the illness.
Can online doctors give you antibiotics?
Yes. Licensed doctors at Your Doctors Online can prescribe antibiotics online after a secure consultation. They assess your symptoms and determine whether antibiotics are necessary. If prescribed, your antibiotics are sent electronically to your local pharmacy in British Columbia for same-day pickup.
How to get antibiotics online for a tooth infection?
Our doctors can prescribe antibiotics online for dental infections as a temporary measure to manage pain and swelling. This is not a permanent solution — you should still follow up with a dentist for full treatment, since antibiotics alone do not cure the underlying dental issue.
What are the benefits of virtual consultations for patients?
Virtual consultations save time, cut travel, and let you see a licensed doctor from home. They provide 24/7 access, same-day prescriptions to your pharmacy, and secure, private care without waiting in a clinic.

Can I get a referral to see a specialist?
