Shoppers Drug Mart

Located at Bank and Laurier in downtown Ottawa, this Shoppers Drug Mart serves patients and residents in the heart of the city, right in the K2P postal area. Whether you are walking over from a nearby office, stepping in after an appointment, or simply looking for convenient access to pharmacy care, this location is easy to reach and well-suited to handling a wide range of everyday health needs.

For many patients, the visit starts with a prescription. The pharmacy team can fill and manage medications, answer questions about drug interactions, and help you understand your treatment plan. But the services here go well beyond dispensing. If you are due for a flu shot, COVID-19 vaccine, shingles vaccination, or travel immunization, you can often book or walk in for those here. The pharmacy also offers hepatitis A and B vaccines, HPV vaccine, pneumonia vaccine, RSV vaccine, meningitis vaccine, and tetanus shots, making it a practical stop for keeping your immunizations current.

Minor ailments are another area where this location can genuinely help. Rather than waiting for a physician appointment, you may be able to get assessment and treatment support for conditions like urinary tract infections, strep throat, pink eye, skin rashes, cold sores, canker sores, or vaginal yeast infections. Patients dealing with acne, nail fungus, ringworm, or athlete's foot can also find guidance here. If you are managing something like acid reflux, hemorrhoids, headaches, or muscle pain, the pharmacy team can walk you through appropriate options.

Preventive and screening services round out what this location offers. Blood pressure testing, A1C testing for blood sugar monitoring, and cholesterol checkups are available for patients who want to stay on top of their health between doctor visits. There is also support for those looking to quit smoking, manage sleep concerns, or explore contraception options including the morning after pill.

If you are planning international travel, a travel health consultation can help you understand which vaccines or precautions apply to your destination. For day-to-day health questions or more pressing concerns, this Bank Street pharmacy offers a practical and accessible point of care for Ottawa patients.
