Pharmacy is a surface light rail transit (LRT) stop to be constructed on Line 5 Eglinton, a new line that is part of the Toronto subway system. It will be located in the Golden Mile neighbourhood at the intersection of Eglinton Avenue East and Pharmacy Avenue.[2] It is scheduled to open in 2021.

Metrolinx is planning to locate the stop in the middle of Eglinton Avenue on the east side of its intersection with Pharmacy Avenue. The stop will have parallel side platforms to be accessed from the pedestrian crossing on the east side of the signalized street intersection. As of December 3, 2015, Metrolinx says these plans are still subject to change.[2]
