Alberta strikes deal to off-load remaining batch of controversial children’s medicine

June 27, 2025

Three years after Alberta’s government paid $70-million for children’s pain and fever medicine, its front-line health provider says it has worked out a deal to off-load what remains of the controversial stockpile.

Alberta Health Services spokeswoman Kristi Bland, in a Friday statement, confirmed the medicine is being donated to the charity group Health Partners International of Canada to distribute to “vulnerable communities worldwide.”
