While the pharmacy environment has changed considerably since the day we opened our doors in 1934, our dedication to independent pharmacy has remained the same. Established and led by independent pharmacists, Value Drug is committed to providing transparency in our pricing and optimizing manufacturer relationships and purchasing power to improve buying conditions for our members. With the ever-changing and competitive market conditions that exist today, choose the wholesaler that can help you meet the challenges facing independent pharmacy and provide innovative, valuable programs and services to increase your pharmacy’s growth and prosperity. A pharmacy is no longer just a place to get prescriptions filled. Over time, the pharmacy has evolved from an apothecary to a one-stop healthcare destination offering clinical services and convenience items that meet the needs of patients and customers. Value Drug realizes that as the needs of consumers change, so too do the needs of independent pharmacy owners. As competition increases and network access decreases, as reimbursements shrink and regulations expand, you need more than just a wholesaler—you need a partner. At Value Drug, we understand the regulatory issues and marketplace challenges that independent pharmacists must contend with each day. We’ve assembled a diverse portfolio of programs and services that satisfy both the customer’s need for convenience and low-cost healthcare and the pharmacist’s need to increase growth, efficiency and profitability.
