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.
