| Whether you have insurance or are buying prescriptions out-of-pocket - understanding the price of medications is important. With prescriptions costing hundreds of dollars each month, every cent counts. Luckily, online comparison engines are freely available allowing you to discover rapidly pharmacies that offer the best pricing. Also, for those people who do not have insurance, services that offer prescriptions at little to no cost are also available. But before comparing prices for prescription medicines, it helps to have a few tips. 1. Change the prescription drug. Ask your physician if there are alternative medicines available when the one that was prescribed earlier isn't covered on your insurance policy or has an extremely high co-payment on your insurance. At times the medical practitioner may be able to prescribe a different brand of medicine that contains the same key ingredient. 2. Switch to the generic brand of your prescription medication if there is one available at your drugstore. Usually, this doesn't require a change from the doctor on the prescription. The pharmacist can give you the generic version of the drug if it is available. Purchasing generic prescription medications can save you a great deal of cash on your prescription expenses yearly. 3. Check out on-line prescription-comparison tools. Comparing the price of prescription drugs and medicines is quite easy with these sites. You can compare prescription drugs and medicines from a range of pharmacies. 4. Estimate the cost per pill. When comparing prescription prices on-line, you should compare the cost per pill. For instance, for the medicine Lipitor, you'll discover that the price per pill could be nearly double, depending upon which drugstore you choose. 5. Estimate delivery fees. Although you can find low-cost prescription medications on-line, the total price of the prescription medicine can be high. For instance, some firms offer "free shipping," whereas others require a flat fee of $10. This may offset your savings, depending on the prescription price.
