You will probably need a signed prescription from a doctor in the province or state that you are currently in. Two years ago, my wife was running low on insulin, went to a big name pharmacy (actually 3). All told us that we needed a current prescription from a Florida doctor. Copies our Ontario scripts we no good in Fl. Before this the insulin was available over the counter. We had to go to a walk-in clinic and get a local Dr for the script.
My advice would be to get a detailed medical history and prescription list from your Dr to carry with you. Then hope that a local walk in clinic doctor will help you. This would include travel to other provinces as well, as an Ontario pharmacy may not recognize a NB prescription, especially for narcotics.
