Why Canadians love Maple

All the walk-in clinics are booked in my city for days. Can’t even get a phone consultation. Signed up and communicated with a doctor almost immediately. Within an hour I had a prescription waiting at my local pharmacy. Great service.
—Apple App Store

This app was very quick and helpful to me in getting the prescription that I needed... Doctors are professional and helpful, no wait time and sent prescription right to my pharmacy!
—Apple App Store

Signed up at 12:08 pm. Needed to get a prescription for an ongoing medical situation and my family doc was booked up. Had my prescription faxed to the pharmacy by 12:43 pm... Incredible.
—Apple App Store

What an amazing experience! It took me 30 mins to get everything sorted and get my prescription sent to the pharmacy! Amazing!!
—Wali, Google Play Store

For a simple prescription refill, this app was fantastic. Fast, efficient, and the Dr. was incredibly helpful. I'd pick this method vs going in person any day.

Frequently asked questions

Maple 101

Maple is a virtual care platform that connects you with doctors and other healthcare providers via text, audio, or video. After you log in to your Maple account, you can request an online consultation.

Consultations work similarly to in-person appointments — the doctor can complete an assessment by asking questions about your symptoms, going through your health history, and determining what treatment is right for you. If they think your condition is more serious, they may tell you to go to a clinic for an in-person examination.

As a Maple member, you get 24/7 access to virtual primary care online and more. You can connect with our network of providers via text, audio, or video call within minutes.

Security and Privacy

At Maple, we proudly prioritize privacy as a cornerstone of our virtual care services. We strictly adhere to privacy and healthcare legislation in Canada, such as PIPEDA and PHIPA regulations, to ensure patients' personal and health information remains completely private and safeguarded.

Our policies and consent processes are designed to be simple and easily understood, empowering individuals with control and a clear understanding of their healthcare journey.

All providers delivering healthcare through Maple are licensed in Canada and governed by their licensing regulatory colleges, and in all instances, must act in accordance with the governing principles set out in the telemedicine policies of each medical regulator in the applicable province.

Regulators across Canada support and recognize the value of services like ours, and the way in which they can benefit patients, physicians, and Canada’s broader healthcare system by improving access to care and increasing efficiencies in the delivery of care.

About sumatriptan (Imitrex)

Sumatriptan is a drug belonging to the triptan family of medications.

An Imitrex prescription works by affecting the levels of serotonin created by your brain. This prevents serotonin from narrowing the blood vessels in your brain and causing migraine headaches.

Usually, Imitrex is used to treat acute migraine headaches after they’ve started.

Additionally, a sumatriptan prescription can be used to minimize or remove symptoms of migraine headaches such as:

  • Pain
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Sensitivity to light

NOTE: Imitrex can’t be used as a preventative measure against migraine headaches or to treat cluster headaches.

If you’ve been given a sumatriptan prescription online, it’ll be as a tablet to be taken orally, or as a nasal spray or powder, to be inhaled through the nose.

Occasionally, sumatriptan can be given as an injection. However, this would be administered by a licensed healthcare professional at a registered healthcare facility. It wouldn’t be prescribed for home use in this form. These injections shouldn’t be given to anyone under the age of 18.

Before you accept an Imitrex prescription online, you should be aware of possible side effects, which include:

  • Heartburn
  • Joint pain
  • Cramping or stiffness
  • Swollen joints
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Drowsiness
  • Changes in hearing or vision
  • Itching, burning or ‘pins & needles’
  • Increased light sensitivity

Even if you’ve been given a Imitrex prescription online, be sure to tell your doctor if you’ve ever experienced any of the following:

  • Cerebrovascular disease (stroke, transient ischemic attacks)
  • Liver disease
  • Heart of blood vessel problems
  • Heart attack
  • Hypertension (high blood pressure)
  • Epilepsy or seizures
  • Peripheral vascular disease (clogged arteries)
  • Arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat)
  • Basilar migraine (migraine involving hearing or vision problems)
  • Stomach or intestinal bleeding
  • Diabetes
