A spokesperson with CVS Health told CNBC that the closures will happen between February and April this year.

CVS isn't the only pharmacy business to close locations, with Rite Aid announcing in October of last year that more than 150 locations would close. In June, 2023 Walgreens announced it would close 150 stores in the U.S. and another 300 in the U.K.

In 2021, CVS itself announced that it would be closing 900 stores over three years after "evaluating changes in population, consumer buying patterns and future health needs" to make sure its pharmacies were in the best locations.

CVS Health bought Target's pharmacy and clinic businesses in 2015 for roughly $1.9 billion. The initial deal brought 1,672 pharmacies across 47 states under the CVS name.
