Gayleggg and brokenandalone, did you see my post about some ways to help with med costs? Even if you think your income disqualifies you try them; some have pretty high income guidelines (Astra-Zeneca meds are covered for people with income a lot higher than mine and I am on the higher end for SSDI and they have exempted me for having insurance for years) and RXOutreach has high income guidelines. I don't know about Xubec. The goodrx website works regardless of insurance, just shows you where to go.

My family dr's practice has someone whose job is helping low-income people get meds and these are all tricks I've learned from her (and my pdoc). Last year I only paid I think about $100 out of pocket for meds (I have a good Part D plan that they will have to pry out of my hands before I give it up and I got Seroquel, Nexium, Emsam, and Amitiza free through patient assistance but I'm still on lots of other meds and was able to make it work). I also know RXoutreach can help substantially even when a med is really expensive. I have asthma that is triggered allergies to chemicals, mold exposure, and lots of environmental stuff and have one med that helps control that. When it went generic and I couldn't get it free I was really panicked (uninsured then) and asked my dr if I could stop taking it. He told me that I absolutely had to take this medication, it was potentially the difference between a life-threatening asthma attack and avoiding one. Rxoutreach immediately started selling the generic at something like $50 for 3 months. Still a lot of money every 3 months but not so much per month and compared to out of pocket it was nothing. Don't give up on those options until you try them, you might be surprised.

My state has a program that if you have any assistance including disablity medicaid (spend-down medicaid) you can get this prescription discount program. The prices on it are several times greater than I've found with these other programs.
