With it becoming harder and more time consuming to access a healthcare practitioner in Edmonton, more semi- and non-urgent care is being thrust on already overburdened emergency rooms. In Edmonton-Rutherford region alone, this accounted for 20.1% of all emergency visits in 2023/2024.
With Felix, you can forget about issues like waiting weeks to get an appointment with a practitioner, or spending long hours past your appointment time sitting around a busy waiting room. Our secure assessment system allows you to take back control of your healthcare, so you can get the support and guidance you need on your schedule.
SIDE NOTE: Felix does not offer emergency healthcare services. If you’re dealing with a medical emergency, you should always call 9-1-1 or go to the nearest hospital ER.
Contrave is a combination medication that contains both 8 mg of naltrexone hydrochloride and 90 mg of bupropion hydrochloride. These medications are combined into a single extended-release tablet, which is to be taken by mouth.
REMEMBER: Contrave pills should be taken with water or another liquid, but it doesn’t matter whether or not they’re taken alongside food.
If you’d like to request a health assessment from Felix to determine whether Contrave would be considered a good treatment option, start by filling out a short online assessment for us to review.
The only way to get a prescription for Contrave in Edmonton is to first have your health and medical history evaluated by a licensed healthcare practitioner, who can determine the best potential treatment options for you, based on your personalized needs.
At Felix, you can start this process by taking a few minutes to fill out and submit your online assessment, and one of our clinicians will get back to you (typically within 24 hours) to have a virtual Contrave consultation with you.
When Contrave is available to you in Edmonton, your practitioner will be able to write you the prescription you need to then buy Contrave orders in Edmonton from Felix.
The specific cost of your Contrave treatments can vary a bit from patient-to-patient, because there are some outside factors that may impact how much you have to pay for your treatments.
These factors could include things like whether or not you have any private insurance to get Contrave online in Edmonton, as well as what your prescribed dosage is during your assessment review.
SIDE NOTE: It’s also good to remember that if you believe that you could have private insurance coverage for these types of treatments, you should reach out to your insurance rep ahead of your virtual Contrave consultation to gather that info. This way, we can help set up direct billing with your insurer for you, as a courtesy.

Apart from that, it will be up to your practitioner to determine whether or not Contrave would be right for you, or if an alternative could potentially be a better choice (based on your unique health needs).

Felix is Canada’s first truly integrated healthcare platform. We provide on-demand treatment for everyday health needs like weight loss, mental health, sexual health, and more. Founded in 2019, our digital-first approach to healthcare includes everything from diagnosis to prescription — all accessible from the comfort of home.
No. Felix provides a faster, hassle-free way for you to get a treatment plan for certain conditions, but our service does not replace your primary care provider. For matters that extend beyond obtaining a lifestyle treatment safely and easily, we encourage you to consult your primary health practitioner in person — whether for checkups, personal health concerns, or to inform them about your current treatments or treatment plans.
Absolutely. Our online assessments have been designed to ask all the necessary questions required for diagnosis. We've worked with specialists to create an assessment process that can provide sufficient information for the healthcare practitioner to determine whether or not you are eligible for a prescription and craft an appropriate treatment plan.
Call 911 or proceed to your nearest emergency room immediately. Felix is not intended for medical emergencies. Once the emergency has been addressed or resolved, contact your prescribing practitioner to inform them of your experience as this may impact your current treatment plan.
Anyone who is 18 years or older (16 or older for acne and birth control prescriptions), and is located in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan or Ontario. We cannot ship treatments outside of these provinces at this time.
Your Felix practitioner will message you via secure instant message. You’ll receive an email when you have a new message and can respond to these from within your Felix account.
You will have the ability to chat with your designated Felix practitioner for the entirety of your prescription length. When your prescription is nearing completion, we will email you to submit a checkup visit so one of our prescribers can renew your prescription.
Our matching system is based on availability, so we can’t guarantee you’ll be paired with the same healthcare practitioner at your renewal visit.
They are all licensed, real Canadian healthcare practitioners! All online visits submitted via Felix are reviewed by them and they must be licensed in your province to prescribe you the medication. It is these healthcare practitioners, and not Felix, who determine whether or not to write you a prescription, as well as the appropriate dosage (where applicable).
Our medical team and board members help oversee each of our treatments to ensure our medical assessments are thorough, safe, personalized, and provide best-in-class care. Our pharmacists provide treatment support through medication counselling and education.
