Are you among the 82 million Americans who are uninsured or don’t have adequate health care coverage?

Lots of people wonder, “Why is Metformin ER so expensive?” or “What will I do if I suffer from an accident?”

Although the health care system in America needs a lot of work to serve its people better, the good news is that there are ways to cut your expenses.

Do you want to learn how to save money on prescriptions? Keep reading for 7 helpful tips.

1. Try an Online Canadian Pharmacy

If you want to save on drugs, shopping at an online Canadian pharmacy is a legal and convenient way to dodge unpredictable prices in America. For example, if you’re looking for the cheapest ADHD medication without insurance, PriceProPharmacy.com pharmacy can offer you a discount as high as 80% off the prices you’d pay in America.

2. Ask Your Doctor for Generic Medication

If you’re getting a prescription that’s brand-name, you likely won’t be happy once you see the bill at your pharmacy. Always ask your doctor for generic medication so you can get the same level of care without the high price tag.

3. Get a Bigger Dose

Another interesting trick that can help you save money is to ask your doctor to prescribe a bigger dose. You might need to cut up the pills yourself to get an appropriate dosage, but you’d be surprised by how much cheaper bigger pills are.

4. Buy More Pills Each Visit

If you don’t want to get a bigger dose, you can also try the route of increasing the quantity of your medication. Instead of buying enough pills for one month, you can ask your doctor to set you up for three months. Buying in bulk is a simple method that leads to big savings.

5. Use Couponing Websites

Thanks to websites like GoodRx, you can scan all of the pharmacies in your local area to find the location that offers the cheapest medication. Once you arrive, all you need to do is scan your coupon from the website to lock in an impressive deal.

6. Ask Your Doctor for a Different Treatment

Although some conditions have limited treatments available, it doesn’t hurt to ask your doctor about different options. Discussing your financial limitations can help them formulate the best treatment plan that meets all of your needs.

7. Try a Mail-Order Service

If you have health insurance, it’s worth checking if your provider offers mail-order services. When you buy directly through your provider, they can help you find better deals. Another bonus is that you can save time since the medication can be delivered straight to your door.

Now You Know How to Save Money on Prescriptions

If you follow these 7 tips on how to save money on prescriptions, you can take care of yourself without sacrificing your bank account.
