How long EAP takes
Turnaround times The Exceptional Access Program receives between 250 and 500 requests a day. Requests are categorized in order of priority based on how quickly a drug is needed, the type of drug, and the condition for which the drug is being used. Turnaround times begin on the business day on which the EAP receives a complete request from a physician or nurse practitioner. You may have to wait longer if the request is missing information or supporting documents required by the EAP criteria, if a request requires external review, or if documents are sent by fax or mail instead of submitted via SADIE.

What the Health Canada label says it is for
1 Indications IMOVANE (zopiclone) is indicated for short-term (usually not exceeding 7-10 days) use for: • treatment and symptomatic relief of insomnia characterized by difficulty in falling asleep • frequent nocturnal awakenings and/or early morning awakenings where disturbed sleep results in impaired daytime functioning (see 4.1 Dosing Considerations). 1.1 Pediatrics Pediatrics (< 18 years of age): No data are available to Health Canada; therefore, Health Canada has not authorized an indication for pediatric use. 1.2 Geriatrics Geriatrics (≥65 years of age):Evidence from clinical studies and experience suggests that use in the geriatric population is associated with differences in safety or effectiveness (see 4.1 Dosing Considerations, 4.2 Recommended Dose and Dosage Adjustments, 7.1.4 Geriatrics). Long-term use of IMOVANE should be avoided, including in geriatric patients. Enhanced monitoring is recommended (see 7 Warnings and Precautions, Falls and Fractures; 4.1 Dosing Considerations). https://pdf.hres.ca/dpd_pm/00082951.PDF PM date: not printed or not captured Source product: IMOVANE; DIN 01926799; fetched 2026-09-10 Product monograph posted by Health Canada; excerpt for lookup only.

INDICATIONS LUNESTA (eszopiclone) is indicated for short-term (usually not exceeding 7-10 days) use for: • treatment and symptomatic relief of insomnia characterized by difficulty falling asleep • frequent nocturnal awakenings and/or early morning awakenings where disturbed sleep results in impaired daytime functioning (see 4.4 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION, 4.1 Dosing Considerations). 1.1 Pediatrics Pediatrics (<18 years of age): No data are available to Health Canada; therefore, Health Canada has not authorized an indication for pediatric use. [see also 7.1.3 Pediatrics]. 1.2 Geriatrics Geriatrics (>65 years of age): There is a risk for greater sensitivity to the drug effects in the elderly [see also 7.1.4 Geriatrics]. A lower maximum dose is recommended in the elderly (see 4.2 Recommended Dose and Dosage Adjustment, Geriatrics). Long-term use of LUNESTA should be avoided, including in geriatric patients.

Prepare an Exceptional Access request

SADIE has its own form for many drugs; this checklist prepares the answers; the ministry decides. Open SADIE

Posted turnaround and Telephone Request Service scope
Turnaround times The Exceptional Access Program receives between 250 and 500 requests a day. Requests are categorized in order of priority based on how quickly a drug is needed, the type of drug, and the condition for which the drug is being used. Turnaround times begin on the business day on which the EAP receives a complete request from a physician or nurse practitioner. You may have to wait longer if the request is missing information or supporting documents required by the EAP criteria, if a request requires external review, or if documents are sent by fax or mail instead of submitted via SADIE. EAP Weekly Progress Report Date: September 15, 2026 Processing categories and examples | Target | Current | Priority 1 — for drugs such as antibiotics, cancer medications, and initial requests for pain medications | 3 business days | 2 business day | Priority 2 — for antiviral drugs to treat HIV, drugs for multiple sclerosis, and pulmonary hypertension | 5 business days | 3 business days | Biologics — for biologic drugs to treat rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease | 10 business days | 4 business days | Chronic — for drugs used for chronic conditions such as migraines, chronic pain, Ménière's disease and symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. | 4 to 6 weeks | 11 business days |
For selected drugs, the Telephone Request Service is available to authorized prescribers or their delegates. In most cases, the funding decision is provided by the end of the call and processed within one business day.

Other review policies

For Jamp Zopiclone, PMS-Zopiclone: no applicable EAP criteria are held and no ODB benefit is established. These policies do not establish coverage.

For rare, immediately life-, limb- or organ-threatening circumstances, the Compassionate Review Policy may consider an unfunded drug or indication, subject to its criteria and without bypassing the drug review process. Compassionate Review Policy

Compassionate Review Policy: source quote
Where there are rare clinical circumstances in immediately life, limb, or organ-threatening conditions, the Executive Officer will also consider requests for drugs or indications in situations where there has not been a decision by the Executive Officer to provide funding of the drug or indication as part of the Ontario Drug Benefit program (and the EAP), and the drug or indication requested would not circumvent the established review process for new drugs or indications as part of the drug submission process for listing within the Ontario Drug Benefit program. Requests must meet the criteria for the Compassionate Review Policy.

For cancer drugs, Case-by-Case Review considers rare, immediately life-threatening circumstances when no satisfactory funded treatment exists; its criteria and application process apply. Case-by-Case Review (cancer drugs)

Case-by-Case Review (cancer drugs): source quote
Note: Requests for cancer drugs are considered under the Case-by-Case Review Program (CBCRP) which is administered by Ontario Health (Cancer Care Ontario) on behalf of the Ministry of Health. The CBCRP considers funding requests for drugs (both oral therapies and injectable drugs) for the treatment of cancer in patients who have a rare clinical circumstance that is immediately life-threatening (death is likely within a matter of months) and who require treatment with an unfunded drug, because there is no other satisfactory and funded treatment. Please refer to the Ontario Health website for information on the application process, FAQs, eligibility criteria and program policies.
