this is a common question i receive from patients. you've probably seen many commercials on tv offering assistance to patients who cannot afford their medications. many pharmaceutical companies offer prescription assistance programs which can include free or discounted medications. i recommend you work with your health care provider to identify the right medication for your condition and then contact the pharmaceutical company who manufactures that medication to see if you qualify for the prescription assistance program. contact the partnership for prescription assistance at www. pparx. org or by calling 888-477-2669.
i've heard that pharmaceutical companies sometimes offer discounts on drugs. how would i get access to those discounts?
