Drugstore.com was a pioneering American online retailer specializing in health, beauty, wellness, personal care, and vision products. Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, the company operated as a digital pharmacy and "e-tailer," offering a vast catalog of over 60,000 products, including prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and vitamins. Its business model focused on customer convenience through features like flexible spending account (FSA) eligible shops and strategic partnerships with brick-and-mortar chains like Rite Aid for prescription pickups. After being acquired by Walgreens in 2011 for approximately $429 million, the platform and its affiliated sites, such as Beauty.com, were eventually shut down in September 2016 as Walgreens shifted its focus to its own integrated e-commerce and omnichannel capabilities.
