I'm pretty sure most of the pharmacies operate on a similar model to the supermarkets and the amount of stock held is minimal, so I wouldn't count on there being anything left worth scavenging after any looting has taken place. Better to get things in place before hand if possible.
Around here the common generic, non-narcotic prescription meds are kept in one gallon plastic jars.
One of those gallon jars of my heart maintenance meds would keep me alive for a decade!
The stoners are going after habituates, oxycodone and morphine based meds and will not be interested in the blood pressure and cholesterol reducing supplies, nor most of the other meds required to maintain normalcy for those of us only slightly bent out of shape.
Meds are the one thing I would go to town to seek out when TEOTW arrives.
prior to that occurrence I will fall back on the stocks I have built up over the years.
