Saving Money on Prescription Drugs

 

Other Ways to Make Your Prescription Drugs Affordable

The most expensive prescriptions are often for heavily-advertised, brand-name medications. While these medications are generally less expensive in Canada, there may be less expensive alternatives here in the United States. The links below on this page will help you to explore some alternatives.

If you are taking an expensive medicine for which there is no alternative, the next step is to determine how much cheaper it would be through a Canadian pharmacy than at your regular pharmacy. If the difference is small, it would be preferable to use your local pharmacy so all your medications would be in the same place. But if the difference is large, you might want to consider purchasing your drugs from Canada. To compare prices in Canada, you can visit the websites of the Canadian pharmacies that are linked from this site.
