Guardian and I.D.A. pharmacies are independently owned and operated by pharmacists who believe in investing in the best possible patient care. Together, Guardian and I.D.A. have been a part of the Canadian landscape for close to 85 years. They are united in a shared pledge to be your local community pharmacy of choice.

I.D.A. pharmacies have provided exemplary care to patients since 1932, when the Independent Druggists' Alliance (I.D.A.) was first established in Canada. The Guardian pharmacy banner was founded 1964 with the same unwavering commitment to the profession. Over the years, both have become trusted names in pharmacy care and have garnered tremendous loyalty from their patients.

At Guardian and I.D.A., we empower our patients to live healthy and active lives by providing personalized, compassionate, holistic care. We believe that Feeling Better Starts Here.

Our 448 Rexall and Rexall Pharma Plus locations are supported by 8,000 staff, all dedicated to providing exceptional service and care in 180 communities across Canada. Whether it’s providing flu shots or other services within the expanding scopes of pharmacy care, offering exclusive daily living products that can help put you on a healthy path, transforming our store environments, or making sure your medications are working safely for you, Rexall is focused on continuing to evolve to meet the changing needs of our patients and customers.
