Update: Pharmacy America Renovation Begins January 10
Pharmacy America in Building 19 will close for a three-week renovation project beginning January 10.

Please note, Pharmacy Arrowhead, Arrowhead ScriptCenter, NEX ScriptCenter, and the Drive-Thru Pick-Up Trailer will operate as usual.

- REFILL prescriptions must be picked up at the Drive-Thru Pick-Up Trailer, NEX ScriptCenter, or 24/7 Arrowhead ScriptCenter. Same-day refills are not permitted.
Safety
To ensure accurate dispensing of medication, we use an automated robotic system to fill prescriptions. This technology guides the pharmacy staff at each step in the prescription filling process, minimizing the potential for human error. Its bar code technology also helps to reduce wait times.
Efficiency
Our pharmacies process approximately 65,000 prescriptions each month. Due to the high volume of pharmacy visitors, we recommend beneficiaries become familiar with our procedures and routines. Simple measures such as using the automated call-in refill service, taking the appropriate ticket(s) at the pharmacy, and having the patient's identification card readily available will minimize delays and keep operations moving as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Electronic Prescribing (eRx)
We participate in eRx, a safe and secure method that eliminates bringing handwritten prescriptions to the pharmacy. With eRx, civilian providers can electronically transmit prescriptions to our pharmacy at DoDWalterReedNEXePhcy/NCDP 2138407/NPI#1184030223.
