Tips for Lowering Rx Costs
Are you spending too much on prescription drugs?
Your prescriptions may be covered under your benefits plan, but you might be responsible for a percentage of the cost.
Here are some tips to help you and your family save money on your prescription medications:
Request the generic version of your medications. Many brand-name drugs have generic equivalents available at significantly lower costs than their brand-name counterparts.
Shop around. Not all pharmacies charge the same amount for the same medication, so try to find a pharmacy that provides you with the most cost-effective options.
Ask for a three-month supply of medications. Pharmacies charge a fee each time a prescription is filled but, with a three-month supply, you'll pay only one fee instead of three.
