The health and safety of our customers is our top priority. All CVS stores sell condoms that are unlocked and accessible.
Our national policy with regard to condoms is consistent across all neighborhoods, regardless of demographics or socio-economic status.
In stores where condoms have been heavily shoplifted, a selection of condoms may be kept in a locked display to ensure that there is stock available for customers to purchase. This decision is based on the theft experience of the store, not its specific location.
In stores that have a locked condom display, we maintain a selection of condoms that are not locked and are available for customers to purchase without asking for assistance from store employees.
Checks conducted by independent auditors in hundreds of CVS locations have confirmed that our stores are strictly complying with this policy.
CVS pharmacists and nurse practitioners at our MinuteClinic locations around the country are available to counsel customers about condoms and other ways to prevent sexually transmitted diseases. They are also available to discuss issues related to family planning.
