The University Health Center Pharmacy is staffed by a licensed pharmacist and pharmacy technician. It offers prescription medications from the health center formulary for JMU students written by licensed medical providers from the University Health Center, Counseling Center and Intercollegiate Athletics.

The UHC Pharmacy now fills some prescriptions written by off-campus medical providers. Refer to this prescription formulary or call the pharmacy for more information.

Over the Counter Medications are also available for purchase in vending machines located on campus.
