Prescription prices

[momoffuzzyfaces]

My prescription drug plan doesn't have a monthy cost. You can choose different plans. My blood pressure med is my most expensive. I only pay about 7 dollars a month. It would be near 80 if my plan didn't pay the rest. No way I can afford that.

Now is the time to start getting information on the differnt plans; before you need one. That way you won't be so over whelmed when you do.

I hate the cost of meds today. Hubby takes a ton of meds each month due to his PTSD -- we pay a couple hundred a month for his pills.

I have depression issues myself. I have tried every depression/anxiety med out there and finally found one with no side effects that works perfectly. Problem is my insurance won't cover it without me jumping through hoops every month to get them to approve it. My doctor's office has been AWESOME and given me about 6 month's worth of the med through sample packets. Even with the insurance I'm shelling out over $60 a month for this medicine (compared to the $4 a month I paid for Prozac). About 3 months ago, I had run out of the medicine and hadn't taken it in 4 days. I was so upset that the insurance wouldn't cover it that I was crying in the pharmacy... I was hyperventillating and having a major emotional breakdown in the middle of hte pharmacy over this medicine Not my finest hour. I called the doctor's office to have them contact the insurance company for the 5th time for approval, and finally got it approved for a whole year. I hate the red tape they put in place just to get the medicine that works for me.

I think I spent $1,000 on meds last year, and that's just for 2 things mostly I need insurance lol.
