Got this off another site;
It only takes a few minutes to get a lot of help:

Or

1-888-4PPA-NOW

Have the entire list of your meds handy & names of the prescribing docs and you can enter them all in. Many of the programs have printable option where you go to a link and can print the app right then. At least try it, you have nothing to lose.

Just found this on another part of this site...

"There are a number of ways you can reduce the amount you pay for prescription drugs, such as: Switching to lower cost generics or different brands with the same or similar effectiveness, taking a shorter-acting drug more frequently, using non-prescription drugs as alternatives and many more.

Here is how Rxaminer works:

Compare the price of your medication.
Review your Drug Cost Analysis report to identify lower cost options.
Print the Drug Cost Analysis report and decide with your doctor which medication is best for you to reduce your out of pocket cost
Discover Lower Cost Options!

Many times your doctors office or local hospital will have a medication assistance program, too. The docs I just went to work for have one, and I know our hospital does as well. It's a huge help for the un- and under-insured.
