Safeway Pharmacy Callingwood is a community pharmacy located inside the Safeway store at 6655 178 Street NW in Edmonton, Alberta, serving residents across the west Edmonton area including the Callingwood neighbourhood and surrounding communities in the T5T postal area. Because it sits within a full grocery store, picking up a prescription on the same trip as your weekly shopping is a genuinely convenient option for busy families and individuals alike.

As a full-service pharmacy, the team here can help with a wide range of everyday health needs. Whether you are filling a new prescription from your doctor, requesting a refill on a long-term medication, or looking for guidance on an over-the-counter product, the pharmacists are available to assist. Pharmacists in Alberta are also authorized to perform certain assessments and, in some cases, prescribe for minor ailments, which means you may be able to get the help you need without waiting for a separate appointment elsewhere. For example, if you develop a mild skin condition or a urinary tract infection and need a quick assessment, speaking directly with the pharmacist can be a practical first step.

The pharmacy can also support patients managing ongoing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol by reviewing medications, checking for interactions, and answering questions about how and when to take specific drugs. Medication synchronization, where your refills are aligned so they are all ready on the same day each month, is a helpful service that many patients find reduces the stress of managing multiple prescriptions.

Vaccinations are another service commonly available at Safeway Pharmacy locations, including flu shots and other publicly recommended immunizations depending on the season and current public health programs in Alberta.

Because the pharmacy is located within a grocery store, parking is generally accessible and the space is easy to navigate. Hours typically align with the broader store schedule, making early morning or evening visits possible for those with daytime commitments. It is always a good idea to call ahead or check current hours before visiting, as schedules can vary around holidays or seasonal changes.
