Edward Parrish+FollowAntibiotics: Not Your Cold Cure-All!Did you know pharmacists are turning down requests for antibiotics for things like colds every single day? Turns out, a ton of people still think antibiotics are a fix for sniffles, but that’s a big nope. Overusing them can actually make infections harder to treat in the future (hello, superbugs!). Plus, some folks are even hoarding or sharing leftover meds—yikes. Let’s leave antibiotics for when we really need them and trust the pros! #AntibioticAwareness #PharmacyLife #HealthFacts #Superbugs #TrustYourPharmacist #Health00Share
Susan Moreno+FollowRite Aid’s Out, What’s Next for Your Rx?Heads up if you shop at Rite Aid: your local store might be closing or changing hands soon. Shelves could get emptier, and rewards points and gift cards are about to be useless. If you get your prescriptions there, expect them to be transferred—hopefully somewhere nearby, but no promises, especially in rural spots. Rite Aid’s troubles are part of a bigger trend: more folks shopping online and at discount stores, leaving old-school drugstores struggling to keep up. #RiteAid #PharmacyLife #MoneyHacks #RetailTrends #ConsumerTips #Business88Share
Susan Moreno+FollowRite Aid’s Big Goodbye: NY Stores ClosingHeads up, New Yorkers—Rite Aid is packing up and closing all 178 stores in the state next month. If you usually grab your prescriptions or last-minute cold meds there, it’s time to scout out a new spot. The company’s been struggling with lawsuits and tough competition, and now they’re filing for bankruptcy (again). This is another sign that more shopping is moving online, and big-name stores aren’t safe from the shakeup. Check your local pharmacy options before you run out of essentials! #RiteAid #RetailShakeup #PharmacyLife #Bankruptcy #ConsumerTips #Business21Share
john72+FollowIs Your Walgreens Closing? Here’s the ScoopHeads up if Walgreens is your usual pit stop for meds or snacks—over 1,200 stores are closing by 2027!

Barry Miller+FollowGLP-1 Meds Are Changing the Pharmacy GameGLP-1 meds aren’t just for weight loss anymore—they’re popping up for all kinds of health issues, and coverage is expanding fast. Pharmacists are about to get way busier, juggling more patients with complex needs and keeping up with new brands, dosing schedules, and even storage headaches (think: more fridge space needed!). If you thought GLP-1s were big before, just wait—this wave is only getting bigger! #PharmacyLife #GLP1 #HealthcareTrends #Pharmacist #MedicationManagement #Health305Share
Vanessa Brown+FollowIs Your Local Rite Aid About to Disappear?Heads up if you rely on Rite Aid for your prescriptions: the chain is struggling to pay rent on some Long Island stores, putting their future in doubt. After clawing out of bankruptcy last year, Rite Aid is still shrinking fast—once everywhere, now just 1,400 stores left. If your go-to pharmacy closes, start scoping out backup options for meds and essentials, just in case. Retail shakeups are hitting everywhere, so it pays to have a plan B! #RetailNews #PharmacyLife #MoneyHacks #ConsumerTips #Business3425Share
