A Walgreens account is more sensitive than most: alongside your myWalgreens rewards and saved card, it can touch your prescriptions and health details. That makes the login worth guarding carefully. Our GetMyPassword team explains how to change your Walgreens password, reset it when you are locked out, and keep the account secure.
Change your password in account settings
- Sign in at walgreens.com or in the Walgreens app.
- Open your Account, then settings or profile.
- Select the option to change password.
- Enter your current password, then a strong new one, and save.
Because this account can hold health information, give it a long password you use nowhere else.
Reset a forgotten password
On the sign-in page choose Forgot password? and enter your email. Walgreens sends a reset link; open it and create a new password. Keep your email account secure, because anyone who controls it can reset your Walgreens login as well.
Protect your health data and rewards
Your account can hold prescription details, myWalgreens rewards and a saved card, all worth protecting. Turn on any two-step verification Walgreens offers, and watch for phishing: messages about a “prescription ready,” a “rewards balance” or an “order problem,” pushing you to log in through a link, are a common trick. Open the site or app yourself instead of tapping the link.
A pharmacy account mixes money with health information, which is exactly the combination scammers prize. A unique password and a wary eye on “prescription” and “reward” messages keep both private.
Lock it down with a generated password
Create a long, random password for Walgreens with our password generator and keep it in a password manager. With two-step verification and the habit of never logging in through email links, your health details, rewards and card stay protected.
