Walmart Pharmacy hours

Most Walmart Pharmacies are open 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM Saturday, and 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM Sunday at locations that are open Sunday. The pharmacist takes a 30-minute lunch break around 1:30 PM to 2:00 PM at most stores, when prescriptions cannot be filled or picked up. Walmart Pharmacy is closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day chain-wide. Hours vary by store - check the Walmart store finder for your specific pharmacy.

Walmart Pharmacy operates inside about 4,500 of the roughly 4,600 US Walmart Supercenters, Neighborhood Markets, and Discount Stores – making it one of the largest pharmacy chains in the country by location count, though its store hours are notably shorter than the parent Walmart store.

This page covers Walmart Pharmacy hours (typically 9 AM to 9 PM Monday through Friday with a 1:30 PM lunch break, shorter Saturday hours, and reduced or closed Sunday at many locations), holiday closures (closed Thanksgiving and Christmas Day chain-wide alongside the Walmart store), $4 generic prescription program, vaccinations, drive-thru pharmacy, and how Walmart Pharmacy hours differ from Walmart store hours.

Two Walmart Pharmacy specifics worth knowing: the pharmacist takes a 30-minute lunch break (typically 1:30 PM to 2 PM) when no prescriptions can be filled or picked up, and Sunday pharmacy hours run shorter than the Walmart store – some locations close their pharmacy entirely Sunday despite the store being open.

Walmart Pharmacy Saturday hours run 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM at most locations, two hours shorter than weekdays. The pharmacist still takes a lunch break (typically 1:30 PM to 2 PM). Saturday is the second-busiest pharmacy day after Monday morning; expect waits of 15 to 30 minutes for fills not already prepared. Saturday pharmacy hours are also shorter than the Walmart store - the pharmacy closes 4 hours before the store does at most locations.

Is Walmart Pharmacy open on Sunday?

Walmart Pharmacy Sunday hours are the shortest of the week. Most pharmacies open 10:00 AM and close 6:00 PM Sunday, an 8-hour window vs the 12 hours offered Monday through Friday.

If you need a Sunday refill, check the Walmart store finder to confirm pharmacy hours at your specific store, or visit a 24-hour CVS Pharmacy or Walgreens if your Walmart Pharmacy is closed.

Does Walmart Pharmacy close for lunch?

Yes. The pharmacist at most Walmart Pharmacies takes a 30-minute lunch break around 1:30 PM to 2:00 PM.

Some larger or higher-volume pharmacies stagger pharmacist breaks and stay open through lunch.

Is Walmart Pharmacy open 24 hours?

No. Unlike some CVS and Walgreens locations, Walmart Pharmacy is not 24/7 anywhere. Even the largest Walmart Supercenters that operate the store 24 hours close their pharmacy at 9 PM. For 24-hour prescription access, look for a 24-hour CVS or Walgreens in your area.
