Two Simple Ways To Save Money

  1. Ask about generics. When your doctor prescribes a medication, find out if there’s a generic available. Generic drugs use the same active ingredients as brand-name equivalents but cost about 80–85% less. If there’s no generic available, check to see if the medication is on your prescription drug plan’s preferred drug list.
  2. Shop around. Pharmacies charge different amounts for drugs, and the costs can vary widely. Use goodrx.com to get cost estimates before you fill your prescription.
