So I should find out in advance how much these drugs would cost without insurance. I am sure Abilify is the most expensive of them. Does anyone know its true price tag?
You should be able to contact the manufacturer and they should have a program that you can get free medication through them. Its worth it to check it out. You have to go through an interview on the phone with them and have some paperwork filled out by your doctor and get a 3 month refill from your doc every month and you can get serveral different expensive meds this way. Depends on the manufacturer. Im not sure if Abilify is one but I think it is.
