Those without RX coverage - where do you get your prescriptions?

I just looked up the price of a drug I need for my excema on drugstore.com and it's $250 Chat Icon Chat Icon Needless to say I won't be getting it if I can't find it cheaper locally.

I would goggle it and look around. I know many friends who do this for their parents, I can ask for specific referrals this week.

Thank you!!!! I was able to find it for $65!!

I called Sam's Club and it was $244 and Walgreens and Walmart both left me on hold for 15 minutes, but I'm sure they aren't much cheaper.

I see that you found what you were looking for but I just wanted to mention something for future reference...

Together Rx Access gives you really good discounts on prescriptions and you just bring it to your local pharmacy.

If any of your RXs arent listed there I know there is another one too but I cant think of the name of it.

I used to be on 2 medications and no RX coverage. By using the 2 of them I was able to get my prescriptions for 1/3 of the cost....
