About

Shoppers Drug Mart on Mumford Road is a full-service pharmacy located inside West End Mall in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The location serves residents across the west end of the city, including nearby neighbourhoods like Clayton Park and Rockingham, making it a convenient stop for everyday health needs.

The pharmacy offers a wide range of clinical services that go well beyond simply filling prescriptions. Patients can come in for vaccinations, including flu shots, COVID-19 vaccines, shingles, hepatitis A and B, HPV, pneumonia, meningitis, tetanus, RSV, and yellow fever assessments for those planning international travel. Whether you need a routine immunization or are preparing for a trip abroad, the pharmacy team can help you figure out what you need.

Minor ailment care is another practical reason many patients visit. The pharmacy can assist with common concerns like urinary tract infections, strep throat testing, pink eye, skin rashes and eczema, cold sores, canker sores, nail fungus, and vaginal yeast infections, among many others. For someone dealing with a UTI on a weekend when a walk-in clinic is packed, being able to speak with a pharmacist and receive treatment on the spot can make a real difference.

Preventive health services are also available, including blood pressure testing, glucose and blood sugar testing, A1C testing for diabetes monitoring, and cholesterol checkups. These are useful touchpoints for patients managing chronic conditions or simply keeping an eye on their overall health between doctor visits.

The pharmacy also supports patients working on longer-term health goals. Services include smoking cessation support, reflux and heartburn diet consultations, contraception guidance, and the morning after pill. Patients dealing with sleep difficulties, muscle pain, headaches, hemorrhoids, or digestive issues like indigestion can also receive guidance here.

Medications and drug counselling round out the core pharmacy experience. The team can review your prescriptions, explain how to take medications safely, and flag any potential interactions. This location is operational and accepting patients, so whether you are managing a chronic condition, recovering from a minor illness, or simply due for a vaccine, this Halifax pharmacy offers a practical and accessible option for your care.

Services Offered

Services

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Treatment

Treatment for urinary tract infections (UTIs), typically involving antibiotics.

Cold Sores

Cold sores are clusters of blisters typically caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV-1), often appearing on or around the lips. This service provides evaluation of symptoms and, when appropriate, treatment options that may help reduce severity and shorten the course—especially when started early.

You’ll also receive guidance on symptom relief, reducing spread to others, and identifying common outbreak triggers. If lesions are severe, frequent, or involve the eye area, you’ll be directed to urgent or specialized care.

Pink Eye

Pink eye (conjunctivitis) causes redness, irritation, tearing, and sometimes discharge. This service provides an assessment to help distinguish common causes—viral, bacterial, allergic, or irritant—so you can get the right care and reduce the risk of spreading infection.

You’ll receive guidance on symptom relief, hygiene, and return-to-work/school considerations. If symptoms suggest a more serious eye issue—such as severe pain, light sensitivity, or vision changes—you’ll be directed to urgent eye care.

Acne Treatment

Medical procedures or therapies to reduce or eliminate acne.

Allergies – Stuffy nose (Allergic Rhinitis)

Skin Rash / Eczema

This service evaluates common rashes and eczema (atopic dermatitis), which can cause itching, dryness, redness, and irritation. A clinician reviews your symptom pattern, exposures, and skincare routine to help identify likely triggers and rule out infections or allergic reactions that may need different treatment.

You’ll receive a practical plan that may include moisturization strategies, anti-inflammatory options, and trigger avoidance recommendations. If the rash is severe, spreading, or associated with fever or swelling, you’ll be advised on urgent or in-person care.
