Pharmacy
Scott AFB has two pharmacy locations. The Main Pharmacy, located inside the 375th Medical Group, processes all new prescriptions from on- and off-base providers. The Satellite Pharmacy, located across from the James Gym, processes all refills.
Prescriptions must be activated by the patient before they are filled.
