A health and wellness destination

CVS Pharmacy offers products and services that help support each person’s unique health journey. CVS Pharmacy dispenses millions of prescriptions per year and provides important health care services. Through face-to-face counseling, our pharmacists help drive medication adherence, close gaps in care, and recommend more cost-effective drug therapies.

Pharmacy care

CVS Pharmacy’s caring pharmacists and pharmacy technicians help people stay adherent through counseling and by using innovative programs that make filling and taking medications easier and more affordable.

ScriptPath automatically reviews the patient’s current CVS Pharmacy prescription information and prescriber instructions. It then uses clinical data to generate a schedule of the most effective times of day to take each medication. Patients receive an overview of their regimen, a prescription schedule and corresponding prescription labels that take the guesswork out of what to take and when.

Making refills easier and more convenient helps people stay adherent. Through ScriptSync, pharmacy staff can reschedule eligible maintenance prescriptions so the patient can pick up all their refills in a single monthly CVS Pharmacy visit or delivery.

When it comes to better health, being ahead of the curve is part of the CVS Pharmacy DNA. In 2014, we became the first and only major drugstore to stop selling tobacco. Since then, we’ve continued to take major steps in our commitment to better health throughout our aisles.

Through Tested to Be Trusted™ we were the first national retailer to require third-party testing and verification of all vitamins and supplements. Through an independent lab, we test national and store brands to confirm that ingredients listed on the label are accurate and that they are free from certain additives and contaminants.
