Help With Prescription Drugs

When my husband and I were struggling to pay for prescription drugs we contacted the pharmaceutical companies directly. They had us fill out a very brief financial statement (not too detailed) and they then sent us the medication for FREE. Pfeitzer was one of them. I believe if you go to their website you'll see how to do this. They usually will send the medication to your doctor to be picked up as I don't believe they can send it directly to you. You can also ask your doctor for free samples if you don't have prescription drug insurance. This was a huge help to us as my husband had cancer.

Some of these plans will send you a three month supply while they process your information so even if you don't qualify at 150 to 300% poverty level you get three months free.

Thank you for the tip I went online and obtained 3 different applications for my mom if even she qualifies for one she will save a lot of money.

I was able to do this and got three bottles of Nasonex which were normally $100.00 each.

RE: Help With Prescription Drugs

This is a legitimate plan, but do not assume that you will qualify. Just as most people that work for minimum wage or just above, the average family might not make the cut. As a train-wreck of the United States medical "plan', which is "don't get sick" I have learned that a lot of the costly meds that are covered will have you taking pills to fix pills. Do not switch to a new drug to save just a few bucks if something is well studied and already works. The price is just too high to risk. On the other hand, if you having something that prevents you from living and leaves you merely existing, and you really have nothing to lose, this can help. Only brand new drugs will qualify, since patents only last about ten years, and too many drugs are making it onto the market without extensive testing. (In other words, if a drug is a miracle, it's doing something bad!) I was railroaded into taking a "Wonderful" new antibiotic that left me with a lot of irreversible side affects. I would have rather taken the gamble on older drugs. Don't trust the web site, the ads, or the doctor if you don't know them. Check out consumer advocate sites and read the small print. Even if money is tough, being dead or incapacitated isn't going to help in the long run!
