How to Get the Best Price for Your Medicines


Ask for a generic: Tell your pharmacist you want a generic medicine instead of the brand-name. You will pay less for a generic. Not all brand-name medicines have a generic, but many do.

Compare prices: Call or visit three different pharmacies. Give them the name of the medicine and ask how much it costs. Ask if they have a drug discount program that can help you pay less for your medicine. Buy your medicine from the pharmacy that gives you the cheapest price.


Sign up for patient assistance programs: Most companies that make medicines have programs that help people that don’t have a lot of money and do not have insurance to get brand-name medicines for free or at a low cost.
