Managers and staff at the store said on Friday that they could not discuss the details with the press. Messages to Walgreens corporate media contacts were not returned by deadline Friday.

The sign on the door states that the Saranac Lake and Lake Placid stores share a central profile system so that medication scripts can be transferred to that location by Lake Placid employees when contacted.

“We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause,” the sign reads.

If a drug is a controlled substance, the sign says people should talk to their doctor to have the script sent to the Lake Placid Walgreens.
