Safeway Pharmacy

Safeway Pharmacy Montgomery is a community pharmacy located inside the Safeway store at 5048 16th Avenue NW in the Montgomery neighbourhood of northwest Calgary, Alberta. Serving residents in the surrounding T3B postal area, this pharmacy offers convenient access to prescription medications and everyday health needs in a familiar grocery store setting.

For patients managing ongoing health conditions, picking up a prescription while completing a grocery run can make a real difference in keeping up with a medication routine. The pharmacy team can assist with filling new prescriptions, processing refills, and answering questions about how medications work, potential interactions, and proper dosage. Having a pharmacist available in a neighbourhood like Montgomery means residents do not always need to travel far for reliable pharmaceutical care.

Beyond dispensing medications, community pharmacies like this one often play a broader role in supporting patient health. Pharmacists are trained healthcare professionals who can provide guidance on over-the-counter products, help patients understand their treatment plans, and offer advice on managing minor ailments. Whether someone is dealing with a seasonal cold, looking for a reliable pain reliever, or trying to understand a new prescription, the pharmacy team is a practical first point of contact.

Patients visiting for the first time should bring their provincial health card and any existing prescription information to help the team set up a patient profile. This makes future refills faster and allows the pharmacist to keep track of your full medication history, which is especially useful if you take multiple medications. It is always a good idea to let your pharmacist know about any supplements or non-prescription products you use regularly.

The pharmacy is situated within the Safeway Montgomery store, making it easy to combine a health-related visit with everyday shopping. Calgary's northwest communities, including Montgomery and the surrounding areas along 16th Avenue, have access to this location as a steady resource for pharmaceutical services. The pharmacy is currently operational, and patients are encouraged to check directly with the location regarding hours, services, and any specific health programs that may be available.
