Janssen (the maker of Concerta) has a patient assistance plan which will cover the difference between what is covered by your insurance (including your provincial drug benefit plan) and the actual cost of the Concerta. Ask your pharmacist about it. He or she should have the cards from Janssen. The pharmacist enters your info into the computer, as per the instructions on the Janssen card, and you should be approved immediately.
Health Canada is currently testing Concerta, because it is very obvious that the delivery systems of Concerta and its generics are so different that the generics should not be considered alternatives to real Concerta.
