Our history of sterile preparations

From its modest beginnings with a clean room in 2004, then the addition of a room
for the preparation of dangerous drugs in 2007, our laboratory underwent
significant transformations, each marked by a commitment to
excellence in service and innovation in sterile preparations. Of our
initial opening towards our next step and expansion, our journey reflects
our dedication to meeting the evolving needs of dispensing pharmacies
from all of Quebec.

The history of our pharmacy is a testament to our resilience, adaptability and
our unwavering commitment to serving our community. Just like M Laurier
Lavoie our founder. As we begin this new chapter, we
remain steadfast in our quest for excellence, driven by a passion for
improving the health and well-being of those we serve.

Our non-sterile masterful history

  • Laboratoire Catégorie 1

    A century-old company

    1922 to 2018
    • Since 1922, three generations of Boissinot pharmacists have succeeded one another, sharing the same passion for galenics.
    • In 2014, Denis Boissinot carried out a first expansion in order to meet the growing needs of traditional pharmacies and hospital centers in the greater Quebec region.
  • Laboratoire

    Expansion and specialization

    2018 to 2022
    • In 2018, Mr. Boissinot decided to further expand production capacities, with the aim of optimizing infrastructure and preparation space for staff. Over time, the members of this team became pioneers in the field of non-sterile compounding, and Mr. Boissinot even contributed to the creation of several formulations in collaboration with medical colleagues.
  • Passing the torch

    2022 to 2024
    • In 2022, Mr. Boissinot chose to pass the baton to another family of pharmacists, by selling his community pharmacy and his specialty pharmacy to the Lavoie family.
    • In June 2024, propelled by his Pharmaplus distribution network and the Horizon Santé group, Mr. Lavoie seized the opportunity and decided to move the non-sterile pharmaceutical department to rue Jean Pellerin to merge with the pharmacy specializing in sterile preparations. This ambitious action will make it possible to optimize the premises while pooling the talents of the two teams.
