“Patients can always choose to fill their prescriptions at any CVS Pharmacy, or the pharmacy of their choice, if another is more convenient,” the spokesperson said.

The company looks at maintaining access to pharmacy services in the communities it serves when making store closure decisions, according to the spokesperson.

“Other factors include local market dynamics, population shifts, a community’s store density, and ensuring there are other geographic access points to meet the needs of the community,” the spokesperson added.

There are 20 CVS Pharmacy locations across Warren and Montgomery counties, and nearly 350 locations throughout the state of Ohio.

As previously reported by News Center 7, a CVS Pharmacy located at 32 N Ludlow Street in Dayton closed last week.

Employees at the Franklin location are being offered “comparable roles” within the company, the spokesperson said.
