Publix Pharmacy Hours 2026: Opening, Closing & Weekend Times

Publix Pharmacy hours are different from the operating hours of the Publix supermarket itself, so checking the pharmacy schedule is important before picking up a prescription, speaking with a pharmacist, or visiting for a vaccine.

Current official Publix location pages checked in September 2026 show a consistent pharmacy schedule across multiple locations in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama: longer hours Monday through Friday, shorter Saturday hours, and a later opening on Sunday. However, individual pharmacy hours can change, particularly around holidays or because of local operating conditions.

Quick Answer

Current Publix location pages commonly list pharmacy hours as 9:00 AM–9:00 PM Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM–7:00 PM Saturday, and 11:00 AM–6:00 PM Sunday. These are pharmacy-counter hours, not general Publix supermarket hours. The schedule was confirmed across several official location pages in September 2026, but customers should still check their selected pharmacy before visiting because location-specific or holiday changes can occur.

Publix Pharmacy Hours at a Glance

These hours were displayed on multiple official Publix pharmacy location pages checked in September 2026. They should be treated as a commonly listed schedule rather than a guarantee for every Publix Pharmacy.

What Time Does Publix Pharmacy Open?

On the official Publix locations reviewed, the pharmacy opens at 9:00 AM Monday through Saturday.

Sunday follows a different schedule. The pharmacies reviewed open at 11:00 AM on Sunday, two hours later than on other days.

This distinction matters because the Publix supermarket itself may open earlier. For example, several reviewed Publix supermarkets open at 7:00 AM while their pharmacy counters do not open until 9:00 AM.

What Time Does Publix Pharmacy Close?

The reviewed Publix Pharmacy locations close at:

• 9:00 PM Monday through Friday
• 7:00 PM Saturday
• 6:00 PM Sunday

The pharmacy therefore may close before the supermarket. At Publix Plaza in Jacksonville, for example, the supermarket is listed until 10:00 PM while its pharmacy closes at 9:00 PM on weekdays, 7:00 PM Saturday, and 6:00 PM Sunday.

If you need to speak directly with a pharmacist or handle a prescription at the counter, use the pharmacy hours rather than the supermarket’s general opening and closing times.

Publix Pharmacy Hours by Day

Monday Through Friday

Official Publix pages reviewed in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama list pharmacy hours of 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Friday.

That provides a 12-hour pharmacy service window on these regular weekdays at the sampled locations.

Saturday

The reviewed Publix Pharmacy locations list 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Saturday. Saturday therefore has a shorter pharmacy schedule than Monday through Friday.

Sunday

The official location pages reviewed list 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Sunday. Sunday is both the latest-opening and earliest-closing day in the regular weekly schedules checked.

Are Publix Pharmacy Hours the Same as Store Hours?

No. Publix Pharmacy hours should not be confused with the supermarket’s regular store hours.

For example, the official page for Phenix Crossing in Phenix City, Alabama lists the supermarket from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, while the pharmacy has its own separate schedule of 9:00 AM–9:00 PM on weekdays, 9:00 AM–7:00 PM Saturday, and 11:00 AM–6:00 PM Sunday.

This means a Publix supermarket can be open while its pharmacy counter is still closed in the morning or has already closed for the evening.

Always look specifically for the “Pharmacy hours” section when checking an official Publix location page.

Do Publix Pharmacy Hours Vary by Location?

Individual locations should always be verified even though the official locations sampled for this guide displayed the same weekly pharmacy schedule.

Publix provides a dedicated pharmacy listing on participating store pages showing the pharmacy’s current daily hours and direct phone number. The official locator also allows users to search specifically for locations with a pharmacy.

Location differences can also involve available pharmacy services. For example, some official location pages list Drive Thru Pharmacy, while others list pharmacy and curbside services without a drive-thru.

For that reason, do not assume that a service offered at one Publix Pharmacy is available at every location.

Publix Pharmacy Holiday Hours

Regular weekly Publix Pharmacy hours should not automatically be applied to holidays.

Publix does not provide a single current public holiday-hours schedule on the location pages reviewed that can safely be treated as the guaranteed 2026 retail-pharmacy schedule for every holiday and every store.

Holiday operating hours may therefore require location-specific confirmation. Before making a holiday pharmacy trip, check the selected Publix location’s current pharmacy listing or contact the pharmacy directly.

Publix Specialty Pharmacy is a separate operation from local retail Publix Pharmacy counters and publishes its own hours and holiday closures. Those specialty-pharmacy policies should not be used as proof of the holiday schedule at a neighborhood Publix Pharmacy.

What Services Are Available at Publix Pharmacy?

Publix Pharmacy provides more than prescription pickup. Current official Publix information identifies services that include prescription management, prescription transfers, refill synchronization, vaccines, pet medications, specialty medications, compounded medications, and other pharmacy services.

Prescription Refills and Transfers

Publix allows customers to request prescription refills and check refill status through an online pharmacy account. Publix also provides a process for transferring prescriptions to Publix Pharmacy.

Vaccinations

Publix Pharmacy currently offers vaccinations for several illnesses and conditions. Official information says customers can schedule vaccine appointments, and walk-ins are welcome at most Publix Pharmacy locations, although appointments are recommended for faster service.

State, age, health, and product-availability restrictions can apply, so vaccine availability should be confirmed with the selected pharmacy.

Prescription Compounding

Publix also offers medication-compounding services. Official information lists examples such as creams and gels, hormone therapy, liquids for children, suppositories, and certain pet medications.

Pet Medications

Publix Pharmacy fills many prescription medications for pets and offers options for managing pet prescriptions through its pharmacy services. Availability and delivery restrictions can apply depending on the medication and prescription plan.

Publix Pharmacy Pickup, Curbside, and Drive-Thru Availability

Ordering and pickup options are not identical at every location.

Official Publix location pages may identify services such as Curbside Pharmacy and Drive Thru Pharmacy when available. For example, The Crossing in Niceville, Florida, and Sandtown Crossing in Atlanta, Georgia, list both drive-thru and curbside pharmacy service, while other reviewed locations do not list a pharmacy drive-thru.

Publix also states that its pharmacy tools can support prescription management and services such as curbside pickup, drive-thru, and delivery where available.

Check the specific store page rather than assuming your nearest pharmacy offers every pickup method.

Check Hours and Prescriptions Online

Publix provides digital tools for managing prescriptions. Customers can use a Publix Pharmacy account to request refills and check their status, while Publix also offers pharmacy-app functionality for managing prescriptions.

Digital prescription management does not mean the physical pharmacy counter is open around the clock. If you need in-person assistance, use the pharmacy’s posted operating hours.

How to Check Publix Pharmacy Hours Near You

The most reliable way to check local Publix Pharmacy hours is to use the official Publix store locator and select the exact location you plan to visit.

Search by city, state, or ZIP code and look specifically at the Publix Pharmacy section rather than only the supermarket’s general store hours. The individual store page displays separate pharmacy hours and the pharmacy’s direct phone number.

For a time-sensitive visit, especially on a holiday, calling the pharmacy directly can provide additional confirmation.

Google Maps can be useful as a secondary reference, but general supermarket opening hours should not be interpreted as pharmacy-counter hours.

Sources & Verification

This guide was checked in September 2026 against current official Publix location pages and Publix’s official pharmacy information.

Official location pages reviewed included pharmacies in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. The sampled locations consistently displayed 9:00 AM–9:00 PM weekday hours, 9:00 AM–7:00 PM Saturday hours, and 11:00 AM–6:00 PM Sunday hours.

Because pharmacy schedules and available services can be location-specific, the exact official page for the pharmacy you intend to visit remains the final reference for current hours.
