Prescriptions Drugs You Can Afford

Prescription-drugs Prescriptions are rarely optional. But, when there’s limited money in the budget, people often have to choose between their medications and other life necessities. Today, pharmacies are making it easier and more affordable to get the medications you need with as little cost as possible. See the grid below for major pharmacies in the D/FW area and the affordable deals they offer, especially if you don’t have health insurance. Each program has different requirements, so check with the individual pharmacies for more details.

There are also two websites that can help you get free or discounted medicines based on your individual situation. Check out Access2wellness and Partnership for Prescription Assistance for  the assistance program that’s best for you.
