The Three Best Ways to Keep Prescription Costs Down

1. Always ask your doctor when s/he prescribes medication if you could take preventative action like losing weight or following a prescribed regimen to avoid taking the drug as a first step measure.
2. Ask your doctor what a less expensive drug option is for your needs. There may be older but just-as-good-drugs as well as generics for your condition.
3. Don’t use your Medicare Part D for generic drugs at a pharmacy, as their claim average is higher than what you can buy them for at places like Wal-Mart ($4).
