How to give blood in Toronto

I found people that really know what they are talking about and you can talk to them too. Call 416-974-9900 extension 3560 or 3582. They assure me you can call anytime to get any information you need...such as "can I give blood if I'm taking a medication".

The general criteria is

between the ages of 17 and 60

In good health

Have not been to the dentist 3 days before giving blood.

No tatooes or body piercing.

Eat a normal meal before giving blood

Any other questions about yourself call 416-974-9900
