Rite Aid has now shut all the stores it once had in Michigan and Ohio - meaning tens of thousands of customers need to find new pharmacies.
The drugstore's latest filings at bankruptcy court show it has now completely cut all ties with the two Midwestern states.
Rite Aid had more than 2,000 stores before it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2023 as it battled mounting debts.
Soon after, bosses announced the initial closures of 154. Since then, a steady stream of filings have taken closures to 856, DailyMail.com analysis shows.
The latest closures - 74 so far in August- were all in the two Midwest states apart from one each in California and Washington. That is on top of 169 in July, all in Ohio and Michigan.
Under a year ago the two states had the fourth and fifth highest number of Rite Aids in the US. Now all 234 in Michigan and 183 in Ohio have been shuttered, or will be soon.
