All Walgreens 24 hour stores and Take Care Clinics will be offering free blood glucose testing on from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday Feb. 5. No appointment is necessary.
If you don’t live near a 24-hour Walgreens location or can’t get tested on Feb 5, you can still receive a free glucose test before Feb. 18. Visit Walgreens.com/diabetes for specific testing hours at a Walgreens near you where they will be accepting walk-ins during the next two weeks. You can also call 1-800-WALGREENS to make an appointment. The offer is valid through Feb. 18.
Oprah calls diabetes a “ticking time bomb.” “It’s a silent killer”, she says,” It’s annihilating the African-American community.”
