Duane Reade Pharmacy

One of Duane Reade Pharmacy’s midtown outposts keeps prescriptions, over-the-counter remedies, and everyday essentials within quick reach. The store sits at 700 8th Ave, New York, NY 10036, a block west of Times Square where foot traffic never really thins. Prescriptions refilled same-day, limited immunizations, and a small stock of travel-size items join the usual drugstore staples.

Call (212) 977-1562 for details and plug the pharmacy’s maps listing into your phone for a straight shot there. A well-lit corner spot sits on the south side of 42nd Street—easy to spot, easier to pass if you’re cutting through the blocks between 7th and 8th.
