Medicine Shoppe, Pevely

If you or someone you know is still needing a COVID vaccine, we have extra of ALL THREE manufacturers today, 5/12/2021 (Pfizer, Moderna, Inc., and Johnson & Johnson) at our store. Call ahead or walk-in to get a vaccine from some of our trained professionals at your local pharmacy, Medicine Shoppe, Pevely! Giving shots will be Jefferson County locals Dr. Lee Kohler (graduate of Windsor C-1 School District and University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis), Kristin Shelton (graduate of Dunklin R5 School District), and Barb Hedge (graduate of Festus High School). We are looking for at least four more people ages 16 or older to receive these vaccines today so none go to waste!

Due to the inclement weather, we will not be doing deliveries today.

On 12/23/2020, pharmacist/co-owner of Medicine Shoppe, Pevely and Affton Medicine Shoppe, Jason Wang, received his first COVID-19 vaccine from Sundance Clinical Research. After waiting two weeks, Jason is happy to report no side effects aside from the usual sore arm that lasts for a few days like you would expect from any other vaccine. Thank you to Pfizer, Biontech, Signant Health, and all the staff of Sundance Clinical Research for making this possible and bringing us one step closer to ending the COVID-19 pandemic!
