Shoppers Drug Mart at Portage Place is a full-service pharmacy located in the heart of downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, right inside the Portage Place shopping centre on Portage Avenue. Whether you live nearby, work in the downtown core, or are simply passing through the area, this location offers a wide range of pharmacy and health services designed to make managing your health a little easier.

The pharmacy team here can help with far more than filling prescriptions. Patients can access a broad selection of vaccinations, including flu shots, COVID-19 vaccines, shingles vaccination, hepatitis A and B vaccines, the HPV vaccine, pneumonia vaccine, meningitis vaccine, RSV vaccine, tetanus shots, and yellow fever assessments for those planning international travel. If you need a travel health consultation before heading abroad, this is a convenient place to start.

Beyond immunizations, the pharmacy offers practical clinical services for everyday health concerns. Blood pressure testing, glucose and blood sugar checks, cholesterol and lipid checkups, and A1C testing are available for patients keeping an eye on their cardiovascular and metabolic health. Strep throat testing is also on hand for those dealing with a sore throat and wanting answers quickly.

Minor ailments are another area where the pharmacy can provide real support. Conditions like urinary tract infections, skin rashes, eczema, nail fungus, cold sores, pink eye, and vaginal yeast infections can often be assessed and treated without a separate doctor's visit. Help is also available for concerns like acne, dandruff, insect bites, muscle pain, heartburn and reflux, sleep difficulties, and quitting smoking, among many others.

For patients managing reproductive health, services include contraception guidance, the morning after pill, and support for premenstrual and period cramps. Morning sickness management is also available for those who need it.

Visiting the pharmacy is straightforward. The Portage Place location is easily accessible by transit and on foot from many parts of downtown Winnipeg, making it a practical option for people across the R3B postal area. The team is there to answer questions, review your medications, and help you feel confident about your care.
