I let my doctor know when my insurance changed from real insurance to one of the pretend (high deductible) insurances. I asked him to change my medications to ones that are 'good enough' and available for $4 at Walmart. He opened a drawer and pulled out the Walmart list of $4 Rx's and changed all of mine.

Prescription medication often changes in a very slight way, so the formula can be renamed and called 'new'. It then replaces a medication that was good enough right up until the 'new' one came along. So, that's what I asked for... the 'good enough' Rx.

Target, Walgreen, and many other pharmacies now have $4 Rx programs and it doesn't matter if you have insurance or not.
