This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.
I was recently sent a sample of Walgreens Brand Antibiotic ointment to try. As we all know, most of the time brand name products can be less expensive than store brand items when you combine coupons and sales.
There are lots of occasions when you might be in a pinch to get a medication or pain reliever and I like the convenience of finding quality store brands at reasonable prices.
Walgreens does offer a ton of different Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness Products at really reasonable prices that compare to name brands. I tested the antibiotic ointment compared to some Neosporin that I already had on hand and there was no difference that I could tell.
In regards to pricing, the Walgreens brand was priced at $5.99 for 1.0oz and the Neosporin was $8.99 for the same size.
Many of the products have the same ingredients as national brands and Walgreens offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee so if there is a product you don’t care for, just return it for a full refund!
One last point to mention is the Walgreens Way to Well Fund™. They donate .01 from every Walgreens Brand Health & Wellness item sold to local charities, up to $3 million annually.

I buy many of the Walgreen Health and Wellness products. They are good quality and lower priced than the well-known brands.
I haven’t tried Walgreens brand product yet.
I’ve purchased several items including their cough drops which were just as good as the name brand ones.

Walgreens located less than 1/4 mile from my home so I go there a lot. I have used everything from their medicine (particularly allergy meds like Waldryl) to make up. I find their products do as well as the name brand.
I haven’t ever tried a Walgreens Brand Health and Wellness Product.
So far I’ve only tried the aloe lotion……its amazing. I plan to try ibuprofen when I run out.
I buy the Acetaminophen PM for my boyfriend all the time. Just as good as Tylenol PM and so much cheaper.
I have never tried their health care items before but I would love to try.
Thanks!

I think I have tried many Walgreens brand wellness items like Wal-fed (Sudafed), Wal-tussin (robitussin), etc. I think they work just the same!
I “like” you on Facebook.
I buy the Walgreens brand of the cetaphil lotion. My son is allergic to all the other brands that we have tried. It is only three dollars cheaper then the name brand, but every penny counts!

I’ve used the Walgreens version of Tylenol and it works the same!
