24/7 virtual antibiotic care for PEI residents
Prince Edward Island (PEI) is Canada’s smallest province, with ~170,000 residents only. Did you know that in 2024, about 22% of the island’s population was on PEI’s Patient Registry and waiting for a family doctor? Thousands of Islanders rely on limited walk-in clinics, travel off-Island, or simply go without non-urgent care. What if you need treatment for something such as a persistent sinus infection?
Your Doctors Online brings one-of-a-kind virtual care services 24/7 from anywhere on the Island. From consultations and diagnoses of possible bacterial infections to prescribing antibiotics and sending them to your local pharmacy, everything is possible with just a single tap on your screen.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get antibiotics in a rural part of PEI?
Rural parts of PEI, outside the Charlottetown/Summerside areas, have no clinic nearby. These access challenges create a strong need for telemedicine. Our virtual health services help bridge the gap for unattended patients anywhere in the province.
Can I get antibiotics in PEI without seeing my GP?
Yes. General practitioners in Prince Edward Island are often unavailable due to overwhelming appointments. But don’t worry; you have a telehealth option to avoid delays caused by the province’s doctor shortage. We have Canadian-licensed doctors available 24/7. You can receive antibiotic prescriptions following a detailed virtual consultation. Once approved, you can receive antibiotics from your local pharmacy.
Can a doctor really prescribe antibiotics via telehealth in PEI?
Yes. Telehealth prescribing is legally allowed in Prince Edward Island and, in fact, encouraged as an accessibility measure. PEI’s College of Physicians and the provincial health ministry treat a virtual visit as equivalent to an in-person visit in terms of the physician’s responsibilities. PEI-licensed doctors (or a doctor licensed in another Atlantic province under the new registry) are authorized to assess your medical condition by phone or video and prescribe antibiotics if medically necessary.
Why won’t my doctor give me antibiotics?
Your doctor may decide against prescribing antibiotics if your illness is likely caused by a virus. Antibiotics are only effective for bacterial infections. Using them unnecessarily can lead to side effects or drug resistance. Your doctor’s decision is based on ensuring your safety and promoting responsible use of medication.
Can a pharmacist give me antibiotics in PEI, Canada?
Yes, PEI pharmacists can prescribe antibiotics for minor ailments such as uncomplicated UTIs or conjunctivitis. However, a doctor’s consultation is required for more serious or unclear symptoms.
Is it safe to order antibiotics online in Canada?
No. Ordering antibiotics online through unknown websites and pharmacies is not recommended. At Your Doctors Online, your consultation is handled by a qualified physician who follows the country’s medical standards for safe online prescribing. Upon approval, the prescription is sent to a real pharmacy, which you can receive only after patient verification.
Do pharmacies in PEI accept online antibiotic prescriptions?
Yes. Since telemedicine has become popular nationwide, many local independent and chain pharmacies have accepted e-prescriptions from reputable telehealth platforms like Your Doctors Online. The antibiotic prescription is sent electronically or faxed to the patient’s pharmacy.
How do you protect a patient's privacy?
Our telehealth platform is PIPEDA-compliant, and our online services follow strict privacy laws throughout the consultation and prescription process. Your health data is encrypted, and your medical records are only accessible to authorized professionals.
What should I expect from my online consultation?
Our doctors follow evidence-based infection guidelines, such as treating strep throat based on tests rather than prescribing for viral bronchitis. A typical online consultation at Your Doctor’s Online includes the following things:
- You’ll answer questions about your symptoms, medical history, and how long you’ve been sick.
- The doctor may ask for a photo or video to check specific areas, such as your throat or skin, with possible bacterial infection.
- They may direct patients to local labs for tests for further confirmation (YDO has online lab requisition services).
- If you meet the criteria for a bacterial infection, they’ll prescribe antibiotics. If not, you’ll receive care advice or follow-up options.
How do doctors know if you have an infection?
Doctors evaluate the type and duration of your symptoms, such as fever, swelling, or specific discharge. They may also ask about past infections and risk factors and recommend lab tests. They can confidently prescribe antibiotics if the signs clearly point to a bacterial cause.
Can I order antibiotics online for a tooth infection?
Yes, you can request an online consultation for a tooth infection. If your symptoms suggest a spreading or bacterial infection, like facial swelling or fever, a doctor can prescribe antibiotics to control it. However, antibiotics are not a cure, and you’ll still need to visit a dentist to treat the source.
How can I buy antibiotics online for a sinus infection?
Sinusitis can often resolve independently, but treatment might be required for persistent or recurrent cases. If your symptoms have lasted more than 10 days or include severe pressure and discharge, it’s possible that they are due to a bacterial infection. Upon your virtual consultation, the doctor will assess your condition and prescribe antibiotics if medically appropriate.

- Depending on the diagnosis, the doctor will prescribe an antibiotic.

- Once your pharmacy receives the prescription, you can pick it up in person or request delivery if the pharmacy offers it.
Can you buy Amoxicillin over the counter in PEI, Canada?
No. In Prince Edward Island and across Canada, antibiotics like Amoxicillin are prescription-only. You must speak with a licensed doctor or pharmacist authorized to prescribe under provincial rules. Buying antibiotics without a prescription is illegal and potentially dangerous to your health.
What are the side effects of antibiotics?
Antibiotics can cause side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, and yeast infections. Some people may experience allergic reactions. Using antibiotics when they aren’t needed increases your risk of complications and drug resistance. Only take antibiotics when prescribed, and follow the dosage instructions carefully to avoid side effects.
Do I need insurance to get an antibiotic online in PEI?
No. Insurance is not required to assess our telehealth platform. If you’re on the PEI Patient Registry and don’t have a family doctor, you can get an antibiotic online from Your Doctors Online. Our online healthcare services are affordable and incur no additional charges.
