As reported on News Center 7 Daybreak, if your pharmacy closes your prescription should get transferred automatically.
If that happens, they will notify you. You can also request the prescription be sent to a pharmacy of your choice if the new location is too far away.
When transferring to a different company, your doctor’s office may have to send a new prescription to the new location.
As reported Thursday on News Center 7 at 5, Rite Aid will keep Ohio stores open in Ashland, Cambridge, Uhrichsville, and Wooster. The company filed for bankruptcy in October, citing falling sales and the impact of opioid-related lawsuits.
“It’s sad because there’s a lot of things that they’re taking away from us on the west side of Dayton. Period,” Antwon Cunningham told News Center 7.
We will update this story.
