After a decade of acquisitions and internal product launches in groceries and pharmacy delivery, Amazon is taking steps to streamline the mishmash of services it now operates and reinvigorate growth in both markets.

For instance, Amazon has begun to unify its two online pharmacy operations, which consist of PillPack, a service Amazon bought for $753 million in 2018, and Amazon Pharmacy, a separate delivery service launched in 2020, three Amazon health executives said in interviews.
