ALERT: Tomorrow (Saturday January 31, 2026), Athens is supposed to have some more winter weather. Our hours tomorrow will completely depend on the storm's timeline. Village Drug Shop strives to be your dependable, local pharmacy and our hope is to be able to be open for at least a couple of hours, but we also want to ensure our staff stays safe.

If you can, please stay home. However, if you do not have sufficient medications for the weekend, please call us tomorrow moring (to ensure we are open) and plan on coming by as close to 9am as possible. There is a chance we will not be able to open at all, but even if we do open, we may have to close at any point.

Be and stay safe!
