Prescription Drug Savings

Generic medications usually cost much less than brand-name drugs.

Prices vary dramatically between pharmacies—sometimes by hundreds of dollars.

Free discount cards can lower prices at participating pharmacies. Compare the card price with your copay.

Drug manufacturers offer free medications to qualifying low-income patients.
