How can you lower your medication costs? A better place to start is to look at making some changes in your lifestyle that may help you reduce your need for medication. It's well documented that many chronic illnesses, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and low back pain, require less medication if you just exercise more frequently, make serious attempt to lose weight, and improve your diet. Becoming a member of the non-insurance discount prescription drug  benefit program can be of tremendous benefit to you, especially if you take maintenance medication for chronic health conditions. This retail non-insurance discount pharmacy program is managed by Medco Health Solutions with tens of thousands of retail pharmacies nationwide, but you can only receive discount benefits at participating pharmacies. Here's one way you can immediately begin to enjoy your membership previleges, give your membership card to the pharmacist with your prescription. The pharmacist calculates the discount and you pay the discounted price. You're also entitled to use the mail order program for your chronic illness medication by ordering a 90 day supply in advance, which can increase your savings significantly. Just be warned that prices for most medication fluctuate regularly and that most generic medications may have already been reduced at the pharmacy level. We've been saving folks money on their medication costs for years.
