Response To The Student Who Emailed Me

"Is coactified and Cotridin interchangeable? They both have same chemicals but do not show up on ODB formulary so not sure" - anonymous student

Sorry for the late reply, I see that your email was sent on December 23rd. 

I suspect you may already have found your answer. If not, the Ontario College of Pharmacists has a very simple flowchart that (I believe) provides you with the right answer

Click #6 , then click #6.1 to see the two flowcharts.

I can't provide you a straight answer because once you read the flowchart, you will see there are two possible answers depending on how the prescription was written.

Good luck!
