\n Uber has started delivering prescriptions to help people avoid trip<\/a>s to the pharmacy during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

The ride-hailing giant launched the new service in Seattle and Dallas under its Uber Health banner, the company announced Thursday. It\u2019s a partnership with NimbleRX, a startup that works with pharmacies and couriers to bring prescriptions to users\u2019 homes.<\/p>\n

Uber plans to expand the service in \u201cthe coming months\u201d now that it has integrated with Nimble, which said it has seen a spike in demand from pharmacies and consumers alike over the last several months.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough this partnership with Uber Health, we are able to dramatically increase the availability of on-demand delivery of an essential product like prescriptions, which is leading to a further increase in demand in all markets we are already active in,\u201d Nimble founder and CEO Talha Sattar said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Uber is the latest entrant into the growing prescription delivery market. Pharmacy giants CVS and Walgreens launched similar services in recent years and waived delivery fees during the COVID-19 crisis. Other players include Capsule, a New York-based digital pharmacy startup, and PillPack, which Amazon acquired in 2018.<\/p>\n

San Francisco-based Uber has expanded its delivery options as the pandemic tanked demand for its core ride-hailing service. The company rolled out its Uber Direct and Uber Connect services in April to deliver packages and retail products after adding grocery and convenience-store deliveries to its Uber Eats takeout platform. It also announced plans last month to acquire rival food-delivery service Postmates for $2.6 billion.<\/p>\n

Uber shares were down about 1.4 percent at $28.99 as of 9:30 a.m. Thursday.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
