Common questions

Questions we hear from Albertville about immunizations

Do I need to make an appointment for a flu shot from Albertville?
No appointment needed for flu, COVID-19, or most routine adult vaccines. Just walk in during business hours. Call ahead only if you're after something less common like a travel vaccine.
Is the drive from Albertville to Parkway East worth it?
Most Albertville customers come to us when the chain pharmacy in town has long waits or doesn't stock what they need. For a routine flu shot, the chain may be closer; for shingles, travel vaccines, or coordinated family visits, the short drive up Hwy 431 is usually worth it.
How long does compounding take if I drive from Albertville?
It depends on the compound. We give you an honest time estimate when you bring or send the prescription, and we text you when it is ready.
Can my Albertville pediatrician send a flavored-suspension prescription?
Yes, and they often do. Just have them e-prescribe to Parkway Pharmacy East in Guntersville.
