August 1 is the start of the ODB (Ontario Drug Benefit Deductible) for Senior's 65+
Ontario Drug Benefit Deductible
For most seniors:

Each year (from August 1 to July 31), you pay the first $100 in total prescription costs—this is called your deductible.
After you’ve paid the $100 deductible, you’ll pay a co-payment of up to $6.11 per prescription.
👛 Low-Income Seniors May Pay Less

If you’re a single senior with an income under $22,200, or part of a couple with a combined income under $37,100, you may qualify for the Low-Income Seniors Co-Payment Program. If you’re approved:

You don’t have to pay the $100 deductible
You only pay up to $2 per prescription
