A friend of mine posted this. Reblog to save a life!

goodrx.com will find the cheapest pharmacies in your area for your prescriptions and offers a discount program at no cost for some pharmacies (some don’t require the prescription to be cheaper at that pharmacy, it will provide a link to the discount card if it’s needed to get the cheaper price).

obviously not applicable to here but reblogging for americans because your health care system gives me second hand anxiety for all of you

GUESS WHOSE GETTING THEIR ABUTEROL!

Goodrx is pretty much solely responsible for me being able to initially try triptans for my migraines, since at the time my insurance didn’t cover them.

I use goodrx for my dog’s seizure medications, it’s a lifesaver, if I didn’t I would be playing $150 a month, when it’s reduced to about $70 a month

There’s also an app / website called LowestMed that works in a similar way to GoodRX. It’s worth checking out both + searching places like Internet Drug Coupons to see how you can get the best price on your medication; I have meds that I can get cheaper with the LowestMed discounts than with GoodRX, and vice-versa. And if you get brand name drugs, you can sometimes stack manufacturers’ vouchers & coupons with the LowestMed or GoodRX digital “cards.”

They all generally stack with insurance, if you have it, which can sometimes make your meds end up completely free.

Shop around.

Your best price will also vary by dosage & by availability in your location (your region… like afaik there aren’t any Winn Dixies up north, yk?), so don’t be afraid to ask your doctor or vet to write a script for generic specifically, a lower or higher dosage or amount of pills, etc.… If your doctor’s not an asshole about it, slight prescription alterations can be the difference between affording your pills or not, or having them in hand vs. having to wait for them to be ordered.

Same with asking for a cheaper similar drug— I used to take Lyrica, which (without a Pfizer discount or patient assistance program, but with a GoodRX coupon) runs over $400/mo. I switched to generic gabapentin and pay $11/mo. for my fibro medication now.

And don’t be afraid to ask your pharmacist / pharmacy tech if the price they quote you is the lowest price they can offer / if there’s any way to get the price lower. Same as with banks & credit card companies, sometimes there’s rules that employees can’t offer discounts unless directly asked… or they just might not know & may need to look it up.

Good luck, y’all.
