Filling prescriptions in Augusta is getting harder than it used to be. Two 24 hour Walgreens pharmacies have changed their hours and are no longer open 24 hours a day.
They say it's due to a shortage in pharmacists. And professors at the Medical College of Georgia say it's a problem all over the state.
"More diseases are known and treatments for the diseases have increased, so it reflects a real need." said Susan Fagan of The University of Georgia.
We did find two CVS pharmacies in Augusta that are open 24 hours a day.
The two Walgreens stores are open 24 hours a day, but the pharmacies are not. The pharmacy hours are 6:00am to 10:00pm Monday through Friday and 8:00am to 6:00pm Saturday and Sunday.
