Walmart has expanded same-day pharmacy services to include refrigerated and reconstituted medications.
The expansion includes refrigerated access for medications such as insulin, GLP-1s and pediatric amoxicillin, according to a Sept. 22 news release from the company. Refrigerated medications make up over 30% of Walmart pharmacy sales and the company is the first retailer to deliver refrigerated prescriptions alongside everyday orders.
Once a prescription is filled, customers are notified through their Walmart pharmacy account and from there, can choose same-day scheduled delivery, on-demand delivery and express delivery with insurance applied.
Walmart launched its pharmacy delivery in October 2024 and since then has filled more than 4 million pharmacy delivery orders, the release said.
