another PSA...Walmart has such cheap Rxs!
wow!!!!!
I had 5 rxs to fill
1 from the derm...she told me this cream I need for some dark sun spots would NOT be covered by my ins. and could range from $50-$150 depending on where I went to get it filled
I had 4 for my upcoming sugery..cosmetic...so pain killers, muscles relaxers, anti botics and something else
total cost at WM....$41
2 were $11- including the cream that was suppose to be $50
and the other 3 were $4
I am sared to think how much they would have been if I went to CVS or a local pharmacy

Are the drugs covered by your insurance?

Was the cream hydroquinone? My doctor would give me a prescription for that but my insurance does not cover it and it would have been a lot at my pharmacy. I opted to buy some online but not at prescription strength. I have used it at prescription strength before. It worked very well but the same spots became darker again when I stopped using it.
