Loblaw Cos. Ltd. chairman and president Galen G. Weston says the combination of COVID-19, RSV and the flu led to a record number of cough and cold medication sales at the company's pharmacies, which include Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix.

He says the manufacturers of multinational and generic brands have had trouble keeping up with the spike in demand.

He says manufacturers are working hard to get more product available, but it's difficult to say when the shortages will end.His comments to analysts on Wednesday came as Loblaw said its overall drugstore same-store sales grew by 7.7 per cent in its latest quarter. Metro Inc., which runs pharmacies including Jean Coutu and Brunet, reported a 7.4 per cent increase in pharmacy same-store sales in its latest quarter.
