The Walgreens free Paxlovid delivery service, offered in partnership with Uber and DoorDash, is being expanded to help offer even more Americans with access to treatment when they need it. The brand will be offering same-day delivery service of the medication at more than 8,000 locations to anyone who lives within a 15-mile radius. This is reported to offer around 92% of the US population with access to the medication to expedite support to anyone who needs it.
The Walgreens free Paxlovid delivery service can be accessed by simply providing their prescription from a healthcare provider to the company. Consumers can simply go online and select Same Day Delivery when their prescription is ready to go to receive free delivery.
