CVS (631 Washington St.)
About
Another of downtown Boston’s CVS stores, this branch of the national pharmacy chain is listed in the Downtown Boston Alliance directory under groceries, markets and convenience. It combines a pharmacy counter with a drugstore carrying health and medicine basics, beauty products and everyday essentials. CVS describes its local pharmacies as neighborhood stores with teams dedicated to supporting customers, and the directory describes the company as a health solutions business.
The CVS chain started in Lowell, Massachusetts, in 1963 and is now part of CVS Health, which also runs health plans and MinuteClinic. At the pharmacy, customers can transfer prescriptions in a few steps, enroll in automatic refills and track prescription status online or in the CVS Health app. Pharmacists give vaccinations, including seasonal flu and COVID-19 shots, and can help patients look into insurance coverage and savings for GLP-1 medications.
