Save Money Prescription Drugs
How to Save Money on Prescription and Over-the-Counter Drugs
  • Ask your physician to consider prescribing generic drugs.  Generic drugs can cost several hundred dollars less to purchase annually than brand-name drugs.
  • Find the lowest-cost place to purchase prescription drugs.  Make sure to check out not only your local pharmacist but also local supermarkets, area discount centers, and mail-order pharmacies
  • Purchase storebrand over-the-counter medications.  Storebrand medications often cost 20-40 percent less than nationally advertised brands.  The savings could easily exceed $100 a year.
