Pharmacy

Located in Michael Hall on UB’s South Campus, the UB Student Health Pharmacy offers:

• Prescription fulfillment
• Diabetic supply services
• Pharmacist consultation
• Email and text alerts for prescription refills

The UB Student Health Pharmacy accepts the student health insurance plans offered through UB. 

Any registered UB student, regardless of insurance plan, can:

• Ask their medical provider (including UB Health Services) to select this pharmacy as their preferred pharmacy for prescribed medications
• Purchase over-the-counter medications at this pharmacy

Your prescription will be billed to your insurance plan if you have one of the following health insurance coverage plans:

• UB BlueCross BlueShield of Western New York
• SUNY International United Health Care Student Resources plan
• UB Research Foundation UMR plan

Applicable copays are due at the time of prescription pick-up.

If you have alternate health insurance (not one of the plans listed above), you will be charged at the time of sale. (Even if you have alternate health insurance, you may still want to contact us to check the costs associated with your prescription; there are times when the UB Student Health Pharmacy bill will be less than your co-pay or cost at a retail, off-campus pharmacy.)

The UB Student Health Pharmacy can mail your prescriptions to your off-campus address via UPS, and the cost is $15 per order (shipping is not covered by insurance). Please note that medications cannot be mailed to an out-of-country address. To request delivery, please visit or call the UB Student Health Pharmacy during their open hours.

You can buy over-the-counter (OTC) medications at discounted prices through the UB Student Health Pharmacy. OTC medications include:

• Antihistamines
• Decongestants
• Pain relievers
• Cough medications
• Topical creams and ointments
• Emergency contraception

For buying over the counter medications, paying copays, or paying out-of-pocket for your prescription medication, you can use:

• Cash
• Personal check
